The Bud Light logo will stay

From the Washington Post:

"Consequently, we respectfully wish to inform you that the National
Air and Space Museum has no plans to alter the Laser 200 from the way
it was when it was last flown by Leo Loudenslager and ultimately given
to us by his daughters," Dailey wrote. The plane was displayed at the
flagship museum on the Mall and has been transferred to the Steven F.
Udvar-Hazy Center near Dulles Airport, which opens Dec. 15.

There's an editorial in the Los Angeles Times tut-tutting about the
"lack of context" in the Udvar-Hazy exhibit of the Enola Gay.

If this were Disney World instead of NASM, one would almost suspect
that the controversies were intended to stir up public awareness and
interest in the new NASM annex. (They've certainly grabbed my
attention!)

Nice to know that somebody has some principles in this day and age.

I must agree with the critics that encouraging impressionable
youngsters to drink Bud Light is a corrupting influence.

I think they should change it to "Sierra Nevada Stout" or at least
"Yuengling Porter."

When Leo hangered this plane at MRC several years ago, a friend of mine and
me snuck (read "broke") into the hanger he kept it in (a community hanger at
that) just to touch it. lol. We were 15. I had a chance to talk with him a
couple of times. Heck of a nice guy. go figure he'd buy it on a
motorcycle. And they call pilots crazy.

Speaking as a religious fanatic that is opposed to drinking or drug abuse in
any form, I have to say that I think keeping the logo is the right decision.
