Ian Varley commented on HBASE-4920:
-----------------------------------
I'd guess that the one on the left is a dorsal fin (on the back) and the other
is a pectoral fin (on the side); it's a side view of the Orca.
... and no, I didn't know the words for those off the top of my head, I looked
them up. :)

> 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).
