Now that what I call an rss reader. NTW, I use a (vanilla) K2 install and I used to have the problem I’m seeing now writing this comment (the text is tiny!).
I placed a ticket on the bug tracker and it was fixed as follows; find:
.comments input[type=text], .comments textarea {
in your stylesheet.css and replace the entry for font to:
font: 1.2em 'Courier New', Courier, Monospace;
Should work a treat, as it does on my home site (not linked).
