Actually, that's what was on my mind too, but the mind and the fingers
don't always agree on the output.

Mostly, I just find it interesting when there is this much flammage over
a simple issue, especially when the suggested alternatives are even more
widely offensive (or whatever).

Design a logo, if everyone likes it, I think it's a done deal.

Of course, I will likely keep using the old one for some things, because
I like it.  

It really is funny that we are debating the arrangement of mini-Satans,
when so many won't likely care about the arrangement itself... :)
