I don't post here often, lest I ask a question, but I appreciate these sorts of comments by people we 'observe' make reliable, wholesome and always to-the-point-from-experience posts day in and day out. Keep the FBSD lists clean of flames. I haven't followed this entire thread, but opinions about the new logo should go to advocacy. However...there should be somewhere else where people can state their political views to too. -questions is not that list. I personally don't care about the views of the 'corp's'.
