    The following observation has always intrigued me . When I log
    off using "logout", there is a noticeable delay before the system
    says good-bye. However if I use any sequenced prefixed with the
    letters "logo" the good-bye is immediate. Can someone tell me 
    why this happens and why "logo" is so special.

your system manager has likely hooked some command file into the logout command,
but not variant spellings. try show symbol/global to see what if anything
is taking its place.
