Flogos-Floating logos that look like clouds

[rgG]

I read an article in the newspaper this morning about these and thought it was a really neat idea. In the article I read he said they needed a little wind or the flogos just floated straight up. He said they have a ghost shaped stencil and on a calm day it looks like everyone is ascending to heaven.

Very cool.

You can say cool, but somehow the "Hey, that cloud looks like the Coca Cola Emblem" destroys the whole idea of the classic summer afternoon's childhood activity. It's like that dumb idea someone had a while ago of using a high powered laser to shine logos on the moon during its dark phase.

The funniest part was how many folks fell for it.

lasers would need an awful lot of power to project an image large enough to be seen with the human naked eye.

Plus, planes would get cut in half. :-)

How about sharks with frickin' laser beams attached to their heads! That would cut a lot of things in half!

sounds ghetto.

There was an episode of 'The Tick' cartoon where 'Chairhead' was burning his name into the moon with a laser. Tick interrupted him after 'Cha' was written. For the rest of the series 'Cha' was visible on the moon. It was funny.
