I was just paying my annual subscription to the Wikimedia Foundation for my [continuing] use of Wikipedia, the Free Encyclopedia and Wikimedia Commons SVG files on the Computers in Geology website, when I noted that they have white polo shirts on sale through the shop. Ideal for anyone needing an office shirt for use in the corporate computer room (it shows any dust you may have picked up befor you enter the room). Last-century Netbridge did a run for their contractors, and I found the white polo shirt quite practical (and well accepted by clients). Then I saw that this year's mug has a geological theme of dinosours and meteorites, suitable for the site office ("Not for use in dishwasher") as they are rugged enough for drillers and engineers to use: '230 million years ago, dinosaurs roamed the earth. These "giant lizards" lived in the oceans, skies, and lands of the earth for 150 million years until a worldwide event caused their mass extinction. There are over 11,000 known species of dinosaurs and many can be found on Wikipedia. Start with the fearsome Tyrannosaurus Rex. Or learn about the velociraptor.  With this colorful mug, you can keep your tea or coffee hot as you learn about the lost animals of the dinosaur kingdom. Wikipedia is like a giant museum where you can learn anything!
