Logophobia

Well, the Olympics are upon us, complete with drugs and lying scandal from Day One. For want of the energy to click the off-switch, I watched part of the opening ceremony. Am I the only one to have been irritated by the DJ's clumsily repetitive background electronica, or is it just that I no longer appreciate the alleged "youthful" approach ?

I hear from various sources that megabuck sponsors of the Games, including Coca-Cola, have protested about logos. They've protested to such an extent that anyone found wearing or carrying something which blatantly bears the logo of one of the sponsors' competitors is liable to be expelled from the venue.

Keep on Rockin' in the Free World.
