Such a logo could:

- use the familiar 'egg' shape

Why even should it have "egg shape"? Egg is a symbol of life, but there are 
many recognizable symbols of life, well being, creation etc. I am just 
afraid that if the logo is similar to the existing, there will be more 
disputes and misunderstanding.

My symbol for a new logo is human being."

New Logo idea # 2    Fried Egg on plate, where the plate symbolizes the 
circular motion of much of this discussion at the moment.    Apologies to 
all those who are passionate and knowledgable on all these subjects.

I feel as though much of this discussion is akin to people flexing their 
knowledge muscles to impress their peers, when the main game is spreading 
the "permaculture" message and benefits.

I liked "permaculture" from the very first time I came across it, I think if 
the idea of "permaculture" can be shown to people they will also mostly like 
it and use it when they are ready.    Logo's may be important to some 
people, yet who can know if it is the concept or the logo that prompts 
memory of an idea?
