RE: Petition: Revamp or Replace OEQ

Scott,

Funny you mention the logo, I just had some business cards made up that use the old logo, the new one is quite trifling. I guess they could force me to change it, but they would have to force my SE to change his first :)

If the whole logo thing was any indication, this is unlikely to force
Cisco's hand in the slightest. For those of you who are new or
might've forgotten, many of us rallied a grassroots movement to get
Cisco to retain the original logo. It failed completely. Evidently
the "everybody gets a trophy of participation" crown prevailed within
Cisco. The new CCIE logo is indistinguishable from any of the others
from any distance. Thus, once my current stock of CCIE logo stuff
wears out, I'm no longer a walking billboard for Cisco! But I
digress. Point here being that Cisco doesn't base decisions upon what
its certification "customers" want or think or say on some message
board; it's a take-it-or-leave-it proposition. Now were enough people
to opt of the leave it part, then something might change. But they're
completely impervious to online noise making.
