Well, yeah. It's a tad monochrome. And somebody complained that it looks 
too "millitary" with all the sharp angles. But that's just it - it's 
such a simple shape that you can draw it several different ways, and 
it's still the same symbol. So you can experiment with assorted colours, 
line styles, curves, etc. But I think the *shape* itself is a good idea. ;-)

And then some other dude goes "hey, I don't think we should have a logo 
with a lambda in it, or any other syntactic elements".

Had *you* noticed the lambda in there? Did you realise that the symbol 
is based on the monadic bind operator? Or did it just look like an 
interesting shape to you?
