The spelling stands
My trusty spell-checking efforts missed the last word of my last post. However, given the nature of the effects I was speaking of, I stand by psychodelic after all.

Olympic logo causing seizures?
Can your epilepsy act up when you view the animated 2012 Olympic logo? If so, that's a bit scary. I don't have have epileptic seizures from such things, but I've always been hyper-sensitive to strobe lights or that vague strobing effect one gets when looking at a long column of trees from a rapidly moving car. If I persist in staring at it I tend to become agitated, almost to the point of feeling anger. It's always been rather disconcerting when the feeling comes on, so maybe folks like me should also avoid staring at the Olympic logo.
If you dare, go to the Telegraph site and click on the link (disable your pop-up prevention) for a look. I don't like the logo, but I can't say that it makes me ill. It certainly doesn't conjure up any sort of majestic feelings or come across as art that will appeal to a wide audience. It looks a bit like an old MTV promo, gone pyschodelic.
