Patient web developer: I used a fake string and we changed the font since then — some letters are wider than others, so I have some work to do to get it to fit.
Marketing guy: Hmmm… I like it saying ‘System Requirements’ versus just ‘Requirements.’
Patient web developer: … How many characters is in ‘System Requirements’?
Marketing guy: Nineteen characters, including the blank space between the words.
Patient web developer: Right.

Patient web developer: Yeah, sorry. Didn’t mean to get all math-y on you.
