AtD teasers and a spoiler

[Martin Hinks]

Well, just because the symbol for the "brand" doesn't give away what
it is does not necessarily mean it has failed. Who'd guess that Orange
were a telecommunications company solely from the orange square that
is their logo?

Besides, a seal is not there to establish a brand, it is for the
recipient of a communication to be able to identify the sender and to
do that, they'd need to know the sender in the first place...

Muted post horns anyone?
