I most courteously beg to differ...  Two or three years ago
I attempted to submit a new device containing three icicles.
Though there _is_ an heraldic representation of an icicle
(resembling an inverted gout, so I've been told) the
consulting herald chose to draw a more modern design.  It
was summarily rejected by Golden Dolphin for "obtrusively
modern style".

I fear I no longer have the patience to deal with the 
College
of Heralds...
