The Tironian Et, dating back to the first century B.C., is a distinct graphical unit symbolizing the word “and.” It’s the same “and” that fuses together Chu and Gooding. More so, the Et represents a collection… an ever-expanding catalog of the many components of and contributions made by our firm over the past twenty-five years. Thus, it is an apt name for this journal of sorts, an assemblage of sparks and sketches and musings and miscellany, all of which are part and parcel of who we are.
