the debate of 'cute' versus/also communicating 'power' is as old as the apple
macintosh and ibm's charlie chaplin in the computer industry. the penguin is
just another one of those weird abberations in the industry's thirst for
'cute'. i wonder why the IT industry is so obsessed with 'cute' motifs?
anyways, my reservations have to do with more than the 'cute' aspect, as
stated in an earlier email.

if there are more people than raj who think raj is cute, speak up. i must
remember to sit a comfortable and safe distance away from you guys at the
next ilug meeting.

exactly, a black tee-shirt, with collars, even a breast pocket for keeping
id-tags, cigarette boxes, pens, smartcards/usb drives with gpg keys,
preferred. by the way, such a tee-shirt is still acceptable to wear into some
company premises, thus making it easier to carry the ilug-d message further.
working out a black penguin logo on a black tee-shirt needs thinking. a white
outline may not look too good, perhaps a reverse would be better. i dunno.
and yes, i will pay for the tee-shirt. we just need to make them in different
sizes, though.
