Broken: Name abbreviation on logo

SscChris Barr submits a picture taken in Panama City, Florida:

I saw this logo on an SUV in a parking lot in.  The company is called "Fluid Sealing Components" but the logo above contains "SSC." 

Shouldn't the logo be "FSC" to reflect the subtitle below it? 

With that in mind, I have no idea what SSC stands for since there was nothing else besides a phone number on the truck.

Comments:

Somehow, I read that as 'Fliud Sealing Components'

Yes, i'm broken. :P

Maybe the company's founder's/founders' initials are S.S.C. and that just coincidentally matches part of the abbreviation FSC?

But the i-dot is missing, so, yes, definitely BROKEN! :)

(Trent, I read "Flwd" at first...)

I'll agree it's broken because it *looks* confusing, but the full name of the company is "SSC Fluid Sealing Components".

I onced worked for company called BAE Systems, you may have heard of it... the BAE didn't stand for anything, they name was just "Bee-Eh-Ee" Systems...

There's no dot on the 'i', so you have to guess if it was 'fluid' or 'fliud' or 'flwd'.

ummm... I read that as the full name of the company as well;

"SSC Fluid Sealing Components"

although if you feel like saying its broken because the dot is missing on the "i" then go ahead, but that seems like an extremely minor issue...

hell how do we know you didn't just Photoshop the pic to remove the "i", or maybe it was there, but came off and they just haven't gotten back to whoever to fix it... that little thing on its own is not worth being on TIB... but that's just my opinion...

It used to be big-B big-A little-e as in BAe, for British Aerospace. After the merger with MES the little-e became a big-E. I guess it grew up or something. I've heard its new meaning is 'Big @$$ Enterprise."
