The horns can be viewed as either "E" or "M" depending on the angle,
and they look more horn-like from the "M" aspect.

Maybe one should use _two_ horns, identical but with different angles
so that "EM" is more or less spelled, and have them in a relative
position suggesting two gnus locking horns?
