Good grief. Are you familiar with the ACC? We have - or at least did
have back when we were creating a logo - tar heels (UNC), dookies
(Duke), deacons (Wake Forest) and wolves (NC State) amongst us. I'm
one of the tar heels. Sorry, but it never occurred to me that anyone
could misunderstand that one.
