TSA Logo Contest Winner
In January I announced a contest to redesign the TSA logo. Last week I announced the five finalists—chosen by Patrick Smith from "Ask the Pilot" and myself—and asked you all to vote on the winner.
Four hundred and seven votes later, we have a tie. No really; we have a tie. Rhys Gibson and “I love to fly and it shows” have 135 votes each. (It’s still a tie at 141 votes each if I give half credit for all split votes.) Both are well ahead of the third place winner, with 81 votes. There were a few ambiguous comments that could possibly break the tie, but rather than scrutinize the hanging chad any more closely, I’m going to appeal to the judges to cast the deciding votes.
Although both logos are excellent, both Patrick Smith and I vote for Rhys Gibson.
Congratulations. Send me your physical address and we’ll get you your prizes.

Wow, I could have cast the deciding vote. But you chose my preferred logo, so it’s like I did.
