Yes! No logo = no "mirror".

(but, as I said before, I'll continue to keep a copy of some FAQ-type
files on my site, only not part of this FAQ system)

Having a logo is NOT about "glorifying me" or "ego"!!!!! It's about
HELPING people understand WHERE on the web they are!!!

The www is a Big and Confusing place! One of my first experiences as a
web page owner was that people asked me some VERY weird questions about
stuff they had found on my homepage. It turned out they had not found it
on my homepage at all. They had visited my homepage, then found a link
out from it to some other site, belonging to some other person, and from
there to a third site, which I had never seen and it was some page on
that third site that they thought was mine. After I started to use a
more consistent look on my pages, including a logo, that problem almost
went away (there will always be _some_ people who get confused no matter
what you do to guide them).
