I recall a WPC magazine article about the Fratzog creation printed many
years ago. I wanted to save the article, but somehow it got lost in the
information blizzard. Anyway, I don't think Engle had a hand in creating the
symbol's name. The Dodge boys designers made the term up. And the higher-ups
did not like the term. 

BTW, is Fratzog a variation on a German word? My German to English
translator can't find Fratzog.

Thanks,
Gary H.
