RE: use of Greater Seattle Aquarium Society Logo

[Erik Olson <erik@thekrib.com>]

My position is unchanged.  I have no problem with it.  I would imagine
he's probably going to have something at the bottom of his page like
"other GSAS's in the world".  If anything, it will steer more folks over
to the GSAS page.

FYI, people actually copy the GSAS logo all the time and put it on "links" 
sections of other websites.  A LOT of people do it with the Krib. This guy 
was kind enough to ask.  To me, this is the sort of daily thing that comes 
across in e-mail and I never even give it a second thought.
