idea for Sugar slogan and name

[Bryan Berry]

I think the word "Intellectual" and phrase "learn how to learn" describe
our project well but not "catchy" as a meme. "learn how to learn" is
simply a better way to learn.

Defining our mission should be very separate from our slogan. A slogan
is a very easy way to explain the purpose of Sugar to the average person
who isn't familiar w/ pedagogy, OLPC, or computers in education.
