I'll look into magenta.  We wanted something that would stick out.

I don't remember seeing those shirts.  Plus, they remind me of Interex
colors.

How about a pyramid on the back?

But, the slogan would be really important for the pyramid.  Otherwise,
one would assume there were kings buried in them... not the idea I'd
want.  I like the fact that the pyramids have stood for many years.

I suggest that everyone who buys a t-shirt write a letter to Carly or
Ann, giving their thoughts on why they are involved with the 3000, and
any suggestions or observations that might lead to more effective
marketing.  Maybe among all of the ideas expressed, they'll find a
marketing nugget.  Please tell them that the 3000 isn't a me-too
product that can be effectively marketed with only "brand" marketing.

That way, when we see someone in one of the shirts, we know that they
have expressed their commitment to the 3000's success to Carly and Ann.

I'll see if I can locate the address to send letters and be sure it is
posted on the page with the shirt order form.
