It's lots more fun to watch the users argue with each other about crappy
looking messages than it is to explain to them about why that happens
and have them not believe you!  I personally like a serif font.  ;-)

I'm thinking it's hidden somewhere in the Gnome settings under default
font or the like and changing it will effect the entire system.
