Battling FOUT with SCSS and Bourbon.
/*
# Typekit and FOUT.
FOUT means "Flash of Unstyled Text"
and that happens when the site loads before the
javascript can get the fonts needed for the
page to be styled.
Typekit have suggested "how about you hide
everything until they load?" and have provided
a javascript way of getting the fonts to load.
Which might work, but if the javascript doesn't
load, we're still going to have a flash of
text right?

// Hide the body when the fonts are loading...

body { opacity: 0; }
}
// Bring the body in when they have loaded...
.wf-active {
body { opacity: 1; }
