Dang, can't remember the comedy pair who started "Who's on first!". but I thought of it because I wanted to leave out the first word on "Dr Who said that?" (It's either him, a sidekick, or a thief that would jump in a Tardis.) Well, I guess you can leave out the last because on that series, thieves never say anything sensible.
I agree that the statement reads like 3 separate things, but I'd also include the computer's "or" definition to make it possible the same person wants to do all three.

Careful the religious right might take exception to that. (IE. only one creator allowed.)
If you look at it, the Camel is exceptionally well designed for its habitat. ("Well designed" is not something usually associated with committee designs)
It can easily live in environments that would kill a horse. (And most other mammals.)
Quite efficiently expresses it's contempt for humans.(A very sensible attitude for a human from a non-human's perspective.) Well... we did have a horse at one time that matched the camel in that area.
Can spit huge distances, usually at a human.
There's more, but I forgot it. (I'm only human)

In all the parks, in all the cities of the world, there is no Statue of a Committee.*

That's a statue of some troops not a committee.

That is definitely a Town Centre.

I've always believed it's a stupid name for a search engine. It reminds me of that irritating twerp of an insurance salesman in Groundhog Day. He's the wally that appears when the weatherman, Bill Murray, keeps stepping off the kerb into the icy puddle. An appropriate name then for Microsoft's offering. 
If there is one thing more dangerous than getting between a bear and her cubs it's getting between my wife and her chocolate.

You have to understand their market analysis. Bing is catering to potheads from Hawaii needing directions along the CA coast highway to find the illegal growing fields while hitting Starbucks at various points along the way whilst the passengers look up photo-shopped actors and actresses as inspiration for doing the nasty in the back seat.
At least, that's what I gleaned from that strategy link.
And besides, what else would you expect from a search engine called "Bing?"
Now, sadly, the problem is, everyone else will follow suite. Just look at what's happening with google maps.

I dunno why people make fun of the Bing name.
I mean, what the hell is a "Google"?
