Ok, calm down.
The creators are really not that creative, in fact, they are soaking up influences from all over the place.
The Rosetta Stone pic is not that unsettling. As you know, the Rostta stone was a, well, yea, a stone, but with characters on it that Translated Ancient Egyptian to Phoenican (did I spell it right?), and since we already knew how to translate
Phoenican - to - Roman - to - English, we were able to find out what the hell the Egyptians were saying.
So, if the Rosetta Stone program features a symbol that was used in Egypt, it really is not that freaky.
It is actually kind of a lame marketing gimmick.
Look, if we go around freaking out becuase someone thought it would be cool to use a weird looking symbol for their product or tatto or whatever, we are all going to be sitting around foaming at the mouth listening to the Death Metal band Nile screaming about how the Annihilation of the Wicked is at hand.
Chill out. I am not trying to be mean, but come on.
Nile kicks a** though.
