My rationale comes from a discussion I had with one of my daughters who works for Lucent. I found the logo they chose on splitting from AT&T to be odd, and we spent quite some time talking about it. Had I, for some reason, been unable to *grab* that logo and ask about it, the discussion probably would not have taken place; I would have been the poorer for that. But that's me. We are not designing just for me, and I loudly echo L.
