Sorry, I don't wish to reopen the naming debate, but these really don't strike me as the ones closest to consensus (aside from being dreadful picks). I think there are a bunch of names that people don't like but can live with, these are just pure nonsense. I certainly know that while I would have dropped the ball on any number of bad options, if these stay in the draft I will request formal objection from my AC Rep. -- Robin Berjon - http://berjon.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ In which level of metalanguage are you now speaking?
