Thanks Mobil 1 for making look stupid yet again. Also thanks Swarb, people I'm sure would have been confused, you spelling nazi :p
FYI from Wiki

"In 1955, Socony-Vacuum was renamed Socony Mobil Oil Company. In 1963, it changed its trade name from "Mobilgas" to simply "Mobil", introducing a new logo (created by New York graphic design firm Chermayeff & Geismar). To celebrate its 100th anniversary in 1966, "Socony" was dropped from the corporate name."

Now, answer me this ...... why a flying red horse .......??
