Yes, I would like to avoid setting up a bunch of new slogans all at the same time. At the same time, I realize that the alliteration ("f" at the beginning of all the words) won't work outside English, for which I apologize. But the *ideas* are strong, so translating those words directly would still be powerful, I think. Part of the power of a slogan comes from using it consistently. If everyone makes their own, how do we tell the difference between the unofficial ones and the official one? Frankly, I'd rather see T-shirts not reflect any slogan, just the branding (logo) and website. -- Paul W.
