It's probably best not to trace the Bryant font. 

Mike Langlie did a search this morning and suggested...
"I looked and looked, and found some that I thought would be similar, 
but this is what I narrowed it down to. Still not a great substitute, 
but it has a few similar qualities. http://www.k-type.com/fontlexia.html "

If someone has time, perhaps go through sites like... 
http://1001freefonts.com/fonts/ and pick out ones that are similar to 
the one used in the logo?  The FAQ on this site says:
Q : Are all the fonts on this website free?
A : The majority of fonts on this website are freeware, but a small 
percentage are shareware so if you decide to keep any shareware fonts 
please register them. Registration information can be found on the 
readme.txt file attached.

Not very knowledgeable about font legal issues...but seems ok to use?
