What font is used in this logo?

Here is logo in the footer of this page.

It's a very basic typeface, but I love how wide and solid it is. Also, similar fonts work too.

Looks a little like URW Linear Ultra Bold, but the 'A' is slightly different. Any ideas? (URW Ultra Bold: new.myfonts.com/fonts/urw/linear/urw-linear-t-ultra-bold) – Jackson Gariety Sep 13 '11 at 5:59
