First of all, I don't know at all how Emacs choose fonts for a
certain face.  It may be derived from fonts specified in a fontset,
or not.  And a font chosen differs according to Emacs versions.
But for that matter, Emacs 23 looks like doing fairly right thing.
Your page is displayed in my Emacs 23 as follows.  Though it may
not be your taste, it's not so bad for me.

`C-u C-x =' says that the fonts used are:

(B-misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--16-120-100-100-c-160-jisx0208.1983-0
(B-misc-fixed-bold-r-normal--16-120-100-100-c-80-iso8859-1
