Campaign to save the 76 Ball

200608291503

I know there are a lot of more important issues in the world to address besides saving the 76 Ball, but here's a website dedicated to that very cause.

The original 76 Ball is about as pleasing an object representing a gas company can be, and it strikes me as bizarre that the corporate powers that be think its a good idea to replace it with the new, flattened-ball-in-a-rectangle sign. It's uglier and more difficult to identify from a distance. I tell you, it's the same unfathomably dull minds at work here as the ones that have destroyed cereal box design. Link (Thanks, Todd!)
