Don't like the logo but equally if you look up Za in Persian script it looks like someone taking a dump. Maybe we should ask them to change their alphabet.

It looks more like Lisa Simpson giving a BJ than it does like Zion.

That's something I've always pointed out to anyone I'm with if I see it about, makes me chuckle everytime, what were the designers thinking

I find it hard to believe that design was the best they could come up with! And as for it supposedly saying 2012, well it's definitely a subtle message, wouldn't have noticed until someone pointed it out!
