          <div>Thank you, Arvin.  Now that I can see the logo
            candidates side-by-side, here are my impressions:</div>
          <div><br>
          </div>
          <div>1. "Torch Eagle" -- Not bad, and I could live with
            it.  But I'm not as enthusiastic as I was at the LNC
            meeting.</div>
          <div><br>
          </div>
          <div>2. "Torch Flower" -- Meh.  I could tolerated it, just
            barely.  There are several better options.</div>
          <div><br>
          </div>
          <div>3. "Liberty Bell L" -- No.  I'm not a fan of negative
            space, and if someone doesn't immediately recognize the bell
            portion it looks pretty stupid.</div>
          <div><br>
          </div>
          <div>4. "1996 (prior) Logo" -- This would be my default choice
            if we can't agree on anything else.</div>
          <div><br>
          </div>
          <div>5. "L-Looping-P" -- I can't make up my mind about
            this.  On the one hand I appreciate its clean form and
            simplicity, and the way it could lend itself to good
            branding.  On the other hand, it seems like it would only
            be effective if we spent $100 million on a marketing
            campaign to establish it as the LP symbol, similar to what
            giant corporations would have to do to re-brand
            themselves.  Plus it lacks any inherent meaning, which
            may not bother the general public but would matter to a lot
            of libertarians.</div>
          <div><br>
          </div>
          <div>6. "Crown-in-Torch" -- I like it.  It has a touch of
            elegance and maintains the LP's torch of liberty theme. 
            I wouldn't necessarily put it in first place, but I'd
            classify it as one of the leading contenders.</div>
          <div><br>
          </div>
          <div>7. "Stylized Lady Liberty" -- It's okay, but I think it's
            a bit inferior to #4.</div>
          <div><br>
          </div>
          <div>8. "Old Logo" -- Too dark.  Not as good as #4.</div>
          <div><br>
          </div>
          <div>9. "Rosie the Riveter" -- This has possibilities.  But
            this was a conceptual suggestion, and needs to be simplified
            and stylized a bit to make it more practical.  Aaron
            Starr had proposed this, and said he was going to follow up
            with the Texas LP and contact the designer to see if an
            improved version could be made.  I'm copying Aaron on
            this email, to see if he's made any progress along those
            lines.</div>
