Ted, you need to shut the hell up.  FreeBSD is not your project and  
your whining and complaining whenever the logo thing comes up is  
really tiresome.  The people who run the project decided to create a  
new logo.  It sucks but hey, it is better than beastie as a logo.   
Beastie is a fine mascot but he is not a logo.

if you want a BSD with a beastie as a logo, go fork your own where  
you are master
