I'm pretty out of the loop on this kind of thing, not sure if it was you the referred to this blogger as having handlers. but anywho... Who is the payer? Who are the handlers? Is this your opinion or do you have the microfilm?
A new way of expression may be at hand??? Take whatever mods you want and have your own swag made... UND gets a pittance from revenue anyway and you get to "stick it to the man".... Be a leader.. Make the logo your own..
