[NCUC-DISCUSS] NCUC Logo - Ideas and designers out there?

[Karel Douglas]

How about a "beer bottle" - we all love beer,its universal... it brings us
together, it makes us laugh...and just like some of us they can be cold but
usually are bubbly and overflowing with energy... Some are dark..others are
lite...some are smooth brewed...whereas others get you riled up and leave a
bitter taste in the mouth :-)  LOL  that's my try-to-be humorous suggestion
:-))
