Seriously - this isn't a "let's be nice to everybody" thing, this is an
"I want my name on a shirt!" thing. We're thinking of printing T-shirts
to promote ourselves - that's a pretty big trip as is.

In any case, I'm happy and proud that I got a BABY - and let's face it,
most of the people who are going to be buying shirts got one. Therefore
it isn't elitism, it's democracy. :-)
