* It is a bad idea to try to guess an author's intention.
Authors can intend a huge range of things.
Their bosses can intend a huge range of things.
* The title of a logo is not necessarily "logo".
* It _is_ a good idea to try to guess what a visitor will want
from a page. But an author should allow for a wide range
of visitors. I explained to David why some blind persons
might like to have the information that what they are 'looking'
at is a logo.
