Re: [PSUBS-MAILIST] Re: PSUB Logo



Ray,

Don't you want uniformity in all the words? 

Here's your original exhibit:
To promote and encourage the discussion, designing, building,
certifiying, owning and use of Personal Submersibles.

Here's possible #1:
To promote and encourage discussing, designing, building, certifiying,
owning and using Personal Submersibles.

Here's possible #2:
To promote and encourage the discussion, design, construction,
certification, ownership and use of Personal Submersibles.

Any interest in #1 or #2?

Personally I like #2.

Ed
