Hear, hear!

When people are looking for something to complain about in Scheme, the 
parentheses are the first thing they point to.  Racket is not about 
parentheses, so I'd prefer towards a logo that DOESN'T have any obvious 
parentheses (balanced or otherwise).  If we build an R from a lambda, the added 
bow should be sufficiently curvy that "parenthesis" isn't the first thing one 
thinks of.
