London’s Olympic logo and epilepsy

June 6, 2007

What a horrible logo. And dangerous too:

An animated display of London’s jigsaw-style 2012 Olympics logo, which has drawn an unfavorable public response, was removed from an official Web site Tuesday following concern it could trigger epileptic seizures.

Epilepsy Action, a British health charity, said 10 people had complained about the animation and some had suffered seizures from watching images depicting a diver plunging into a pool.

That logo cost $796,000? Has the world gone mad? What in the world were they thinking when they approved that contract?

Phillistines!

No wonder that you are nothing more than MDs.

Just remember, the same people who led the project to create the logo for $800,000 will soon be redesigning your healthcare system.
