As a Christian, and someone with a sense of humor (I like to think, at 
least), who also understands that a daemon is not an angel of the devil, 
how about taking it up a notch - if this is about NYC, why not have an 
apple on there, too? A pointed red tail and an apple - what a cool 
double entendre. Imagine that logo in front of a scene of central park 
(Eden)... is that a triple entendre?
