Not a dumb idea by any means.  We just couldn't get it to work.  In fact the 
PLUG element has been the damn hardest thing in creating a logo.  Plugs just 
aren't....well...sexy enough for a logo. Which leaves us with either a geeky 
(bad!) logo, or a rather abstract connection to PLUG Inc.  That's why we 
added the wave.  I think it almost works (for something like a t-shirt), but 
for a logo I'd recommend we just go with Tux: board rider and forget any 
reference to a plug in the logo itself.  We can write PLUG, Perth Linux 
Users' Group or whatever in different fonts depending on how we're using the 
logo.  YMMV.

Woke up this morning, don't believe what I saw.
Hundred billion bottles washed up on the shore.
Seems I'm not alone in being alone.
Hundred billion castaways looking for a call.
