Could I comment on your site logo? The FTB thing? From far away and in the url bar, it sort of looks like a Christian cross. I’ve got to say I have a thumbs down reaction to it. Thanks and best wishes for your health!

I keep thinking we should get another cat for exactly this reason.
Re the FTB logo. I personally quite like it, but it takes up way too much space.

A big pile of warm, fuzzy kitties is the best. I just want to snuggle in there with them on this cold, damp Texas morning.
