Dima Spivak commented on HBASE-4920:
------------------------------------
I agree with Enis, the mean orca looks like it's going to do something
nefarious with all your data. That said, the overall design makes it much
clearer that it's a whale (versus a few of the more abstract proofs that, as
Lars pointed out two years ago, look embryonic). Perhaps the design team can
muster an orca in a better mood, Stack? :-)

> We need a totem for our t-shirt that is yet to be printed. O'Reilly owns the
> Clyesdale. We need something else.
> We could have a fluffy little duck that quacks 'hbase!' when you squeeze it
> and we could order boxes of them from some off-shore sweatshop that
> subcontracts to a contractor who employs child labor only.....
> Or we could have an Orca (Big!, Fast!, Killer!, and in a poem that Marcy from
> Salesforce showed me, that was a bit too spiritual for me to be seen quoting
> here, it had the Orca as the 'Guardian of the Cosmic Memory': i.e. in
> translation, bigdata).
