Oh, well. What's the point in having my very being at Mudcat threatened with abject humiliation without grousing about it a little?
I grew up in Seattle before it was such a big coffee slurping city (I moved away in 1980). I can't afford the fancy tea (I don't drink coffee) at the place so I rarely go in unless it is an airport or hotel where I'm passing through. So I didn't pay much attention to the logo. I should know this, but I'm sure a search will only hit the coffee shops--isn't Starbuck a character in Moby Dick? Yes, I looked him up. He's one of the mates. So maybe the symbol should be a whale, not a piece of tail.
