It's at the top of the Yahoo search results right enough. It does not seem to figure in Google at all.
BP may be responsible but ultimately the customer always pays.

Necessity is not the Mother of Invention.
Desperation is the real Mother of Invention.

That is a good signpost towards New Clean Technologies.

I found this competition http://www.logomyway.com/contestView.php?contestId=1746 to re-design the BP logo
So I did
Unfortunately this re-Design was eventually deemed 'not Relevant' by contest organisers :)
