I don't find your post very clearly expressed I fear, Ebbie. Could you perhaps clarify the point you are making?

The no nukes sign doesn't 'upset' me. I have expressed no opinion as to that. I was merely endeavouring to interpret the doubt expressed by the OP as to whether such a sign in Google's logo was appropriate in the case of what is supposed to be a forum open to opinions from all sides, which is surely what google purports to be. This seemed to me a point that many posters to the thread had failed to take on board. Of course evryone hopes for peace: but expressing this desire with a symbol which has always had a particular political axe to grind [even if some innocents over that side hadn't appreciated the fact] is perhaps not the eftest way to express this aspiration? That's all.
