My fault, it was late at night and I did a cut'n'paste from emacs 
that retained the "\" at the line-wrapping. This should work in 
your browser. You can tweak the location of the circles using cx, 
cy, and stretch the "D" using scale(), and move it using 
translate(). The viewBox should probably be redefined to be 
tighter.

The cool thing about having it inlined is that you can animate 
the colour of each element using CSS (like having the circles 
fade in first).
