'''Sowa-1''' - The following procedure would [http://ontolog.cim3.net/forum/oor-forum/2011-03/msg00019.html create OO above the R] to make the order clear: 

* 1. Draw 3 tangent circles (with thin lines) with two circles above and one circle centered below the other two. 
* 2. Enclose the above structure in a larger circle (possibly with some 3-D effects, such as a raised surface). 
* 3. Choose a font with rounded letters and distort the R to cause its top to have the same curvature as the enclosed circles. 
* 4. Overlay Os on the top two circles. 
* 5. Overlay R on the bottom circle. 
* 6. Erase the original guide circles.
