Subject: The excision of the '+' as a symbol of religious and political intolerance. Dear Sirs, It has come to my attention that you are pursuing the worthy goal of destroying all iconic representations that may call to mind or otherwise appear to support political affiliations that all right minded thinking people rightfully abhor. As a part of this effort I would like to draw your attention to the continuing perfidious use of a symbol that is associated with a group of organisations in the past that have ritually slaughtered, castrated and persecuted others simply because they did not worship this symbol. Shocking as it may seem this symbol is so prevalent that it is used every day in our schools, our universities, even our desktop calculators promote this sickening organisation. Our children's minds are polluted with this filth from the time they begin to do simple arithmetic. No wonder our society is corrupt and even common snackfoods are used in an attempt to assassinate our leaders. A snackfood in the shape of the secret celtic knot, another symbol of ritual slaughter, who can forget the barbarism of the Druids? But I digress. Let this older and more powerful symbol be the real target of your great and noble cause. Petition your lawmakers and school boards. Say no to '+' in all its forms. If I were medically fit I would also be strenuous in my efforts to aid and support you. Sadly, however, I am unable to gain access to computers on a regular basis since the incident with the Daily Planet. But never fear that there are those that believe in your goals, a truly value free, content free representational scheme to which no one objects. Let the empty square be our symbol, let there be no differentiation or slight causal connection with any thought or concept. Let us be free! Humbly yours, A friend
