posted this to rec.moto y'day: remember a few years ago i called for interests for a "know fear" t-shirt? i couldnt complete that project since i had to go back home (to india) urgently and never got around to it, when i returned. well, i talked to a few places that print shirts and i have decided to revive the idea. i will post an image of the t-shirt as soon as i have one ready, but here's the idea: front shows some kind of bike/biking: a biker leaned over or something? with the big caption: KNOW FEAR! and the more rounded geeky in colour on the back. i prefer to do a print on black. any interest in white background? joe krause suggested something that he had overheard at summit point: "If you arent afraid you arent going fast enough". do you think that would make a good add-on to the front, lower and in smaller print? the second tshirt idea was one showing the usual traffic sign for curves with the caption: "have you hugged a curve today?" and geeky in the back. here's the list of folks who showed interest last time around: catness catness@netcom.com both Butch Dunlap dunlapb@peak.org hugged a curve Christopher Hill jchill@gueuze.dgsys.com know fear David Braun Flash@Deathstar.com know fear Luc Marcouiller marcouil@ireq.hydro.qc.ca hugged a curve Jae D. Roh jdroh@icd.teradyne.com hugged a curve Mike Frachel MJF3935@ritvax.isc.rit.edu both Juliana L Holm jholm@osf1.gmu.edu both Judy Anderson yduJ@cs.stanford.edu hugged a curve Douglass L. Pinckney dougp@gti.net both Adam Hebblewhite adam@sulaco.demon.co.uk both Steve Moonitz stevem@ew.timeinc.com hugged a curve Val Gregory vgregory@hudson.den.mmc.com both Debbie Matyi matyi@tfn.com both Paul D Thompson iguana@aging.coa.uky.edu both Charles Willson cwillson@lava.net know fear Joseph Edward Krause jek3e@maxwell.acc.virginia.edu ??? i would need reconfirmation from all you folks, since you might've changed your minds since two years ago! also thats hardly enough interest to print shirts. if i dont get a minimum of 50 orders (some of the people above asked for two t-shirts, so thats really not impossible), i will proceed with the idea. if you are interested in either of these t-shirt ideas, please send me e-mail with your preference: which one (or both) would you like? how many? do you prefer a black or white background? what do you think of the "if you arent afraid you arent going fast enough" idea? it sounds funny, but it might remove the irony of the "know fear"! send me e-mail if you are interested: rn@research.att.com. followups posted to the newsgroup will not be counted as a response (since i cannot follow the newsgroup all the time). small print: needless to say, this offer is open to everybody and his dog. you dont need to be a denizen of doom or anything else (not even a biker, so charlie smith is eligible too ;-)). profits (and there will be profits since i will overprice the shirts a bit) will go to the amha (american motorcycle heritage museum). feel free to redistribute this message to motorcycle mailing lists and your friends. as far as i know and i have checked both t-shirt ideas are original as of two years ago, when i/we came up with them. -- ravi -- ------------------------------------------------------- none-%er #2 ------- Ravi Narayan AT&T Bell Labs, Holmdel NJ. 89 Suzuki GS500E H: 908-940-9058 W: 908-949-5714 92 Ducati 750SS rn@research.att.com __ http://vger.rutgers.edu/~ravi _ DoD Squid #1 _____
