l.The lack of agreement on the choice of one logo,a pin, is emblematic (no pun intended), of the weakness of the PD effort to get national attention. A ball of string? Remember Sisyphus, the legendary Corinthian Greek king. His punishment in Hades was the task of having to roll a rock up a hill, only to have it roll back as he neared the top. TV recently had a report on a unique sport, strong men throwing increasingly heavy rocks in a distance throwing competition. Why not a PD sponsored national competition in up-hill stone rolling Or for weaklings, perhaps instead of a stone they could use a ball of string. PWP are in a constant struggle with gravity, so why not a national up-the-hill stone rolling contest? Instant name recognition courtesy of "The Rolling Stones." It could be called the PD Sisyphus -up-the-hill stone rolling competition, a contestadvertised as being not for sissies. After all, PD is not for sissies (hope I am not accused of not being PC in using the word sissies)). Just funning! Have you seen the cartoon of the clown on the telephone? The caption reads, "What's the second best medicine?" I'll string along with the ball of string idea, so don't tell me to go fly a kite. Why not a PD kite festival? We could use all that string. In India, one day a year everyone goes to their rooftops to fly their kites. We could have such a festival and get some high-flying publicity.
