Unfortunately any job working for the government, either as employee or contractor, isn't a job at all. It must be paid for by confiscating money from those who have real jobs, i.e., those engaged in actually producing wealth.

Your aesthetics, other people's money. Therein lies the problem. Government should not be in the aesthetics business.

A most generous offer. I return I'd send you a copy of my last book but, unless you participate in a rather obscure horse sport, it wouldn't be much of a gift. Have you considered that it might be the case that I feel as I do not because I don't understand the subject but because I do indeed...

Apples and oranges. Those for whom a brand, whatever that might be, was created by you or anyone else, are but a tiny subset of all small businesses That, essentially, 50% [your number] less the miniscule number that sought your services or those of your competitors, of all small...

Name one business that was snatched from the jaws of receivership and made profitable because of a symbol that you designed. Show the necessary and sufficient conditions that unequivocally confirm that this symbol alone was the cause of this success. Not some fine new marketing program, just...

True, but it would be a safety net regardless if something were printed on it or not.

Really? Someone who created a logo of such power that people started buying goods and services that they did not want or need in sufficient numbers to make an otherwise unsuccessful company successful? While it's a certainty that there are egos that would hold that that's exactly what they...

No. Whomever did that Nike thing is lost in obscurity. A company's success is determined by providing goods and services that others want to buy, not by having a spiffy symbol. A successful company could use the image of a baboon's a$$ and it would still be successful. Contrariwise an...

Only the government would waste money on something like this. "Pay no attention to that man behind the curtain..." immediately comes to mind.

It would seem to me that a successful person would be successful with or without agonizing over what to do on a weekend, not because of it. I can tell you that whatever your endeavor, cherish the weekends for what they are; a two day vacation. When an if you retire, weekends are the...

One more time... All grommet presses do exactly the same thing in exactly the same way. The exception to this are some el cheapo Pacific rim presses that have the die on the bottom and the anvil on top. These are next to useless since you have to punch a hold in the material, set the hole...

You changed the entire design and Revue is the best type face you can come up with?

If pointing out unclear copy is trashing something then your definition of trashing and my own vary considerably. Any trashing was ably accomplished by those apparently packing a reverence for certain things that I do not share. Note that I have had more than my share of friends and family...

I should think that those that are unfamiliar with the subject would be the very people whose awareness you might want to raise. Otherwise you're just preaching to the choir.

A pretty enthusiastic rant for someone who's not touchy. It may well be the best known name in that arena but if one is not familiar with that arena then it's pretty much meaningless. I'll admit to having seen the name but then I've also seen a lot of other names. Some associated with this or...

How about including the phrase 'breast cancer' somewhere in the copy? That way it's not alluding to something, it's coming right out and saying it. Are those two words small enough for your cognitive engine to process?

I should think that might be those who know what a 'Susan G. Komen' is coupled with those who feel that there's some arcane meaning ascribed to the color pink.

Really? What is a 'Susan G. Komen walk'? It that some sort of dance step? Will there be a massive conga line snake dancing off into the sunset? What is a 'Susan G Komen for the cure"? What are you attempting to cure? Just who or what might a 'Susan G. Komen' be? Now then, someone...

Other than the top three lines, the copy is incomprehensible. Perhaps it makes sense to the breast cancer in-crowd, even that is assuming that this has something to do with breast cancer, but it makes little sense to anyone else.

He was a good story teller, that was his long suit. As an actor he was far more of a personality and/or a character than a craftsman. Any feelings I might have had for him evaporated the first time I saw him as a doddering, close to drooling, old fool endorsing obamacare,
