Agreed Patrick... The web is not print. That's the beauty of CSS... The
cascade allows you to select more than one font that your page can be viewed
in.

Granted though, Tom's point about size difference is well taken... A pixel
is not a pixel and an em is not an em... They're relative to the font. So
this must be taken into consideration when selecting your font
combinations...
