Nissan's stealing our logo!

I just saw that Nissan is offering some t-shirts, most with pretty nice designs.

This one caught my eye:
Men's Go Electric | Nissan Leaf Store



Seem familiar?

Or do you prefer this?




In all seriousness, they have some nice designs. See them all at NISSAN T-shirts.

Hey Ben, I work for a school system and have access to a bunch a kids needing projects for their CAD classes and CNC mill... I was wondering if it would be ok to machine the logo into a custom case for my Revolt Controller?

You can tell their logo is a ripoff because the fingers aren't really holding the lightning, they're slightly off.

And have you considered wearing a mask and cape with that t-shirt?

No, the face of wacky homebuilt electric vehicles must remain unmasked.

Somebody once pointed out to me that Superman is one of the few super-heros who DOESN'T wear a mask, instead his alter-ego does (Clark Kent wears glasses to disguise himself...)

I met Chris Paine this summer, and I was wearing a Open Revolt T-shirt at the time. The first thing he even said before hello was "Cool T-shirt! Where can I get one?"

Anyone know Chris Paine's address?...
