I've tried to compact it so it's board friendly. Hopefully it's still readable.

Unfortunately, if I drop the framerate, it looks bad and so would require more frames and it's pushing the filesize as it is.

BTW, I used one of the fonts from that mess from last night on the CDC above.
They were still on my desktop and I hate Arial. Almost as much as I hate the

# Nice one
Is it the 28 Days Later one?
(I helped save b3ta! Bela Lugosi's Dad, Tue 28 Apr 2009, 5:26, archived)
# Name is "lt.ttf"
So you might be correct there.

edit: No I see the "28days" there too, Not the same.
