Perhaps the convention of names starting with successive letters of the alphabet should be used, rather like hurricanes.

So many inane suggestions.

The only apt and logical choices are drake or sagan, to honour those that gave so much inspiration for the quest.

ORION

Orion, often referred to as The Hunter, is a prominent constellation located on the celestial equator and visible throughout the world. It is one of the most conspicuous, and most recognizable constellations in the night sky.[1] Its name refers to Orion, a hunter in Greek mythology.

Stanley makes me thing of another name.......

Swordfish. The hacking scene in that movie is a kittyman classic.

I'd post a link, but I was told there is a new unwritten rule that forbids posting movie/music links in the NC.

Like, they could not possibly contribute to the conversation.

PM me, I'll link ya.

Was just F'n with ya, Stan.

I vote that the name for one of the servers should be "Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch", which is the longest officially recognised place name in the United Kingdom and one of the longest in the world.

Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch

This second generation Welsh-American heartily agrees!

Cymru am byth!

You know there is a Forums Admin that is in charge, right? Why bother Eric over such things when he has an Admin to take care of the boards?

Because I have his ear. And his respect. No matter what happens.

Not really your business, but because I posted the statement, I granted you a response.

I know Fred, I have spoken to Fred. And you are not Fred.

He is not very approachable, BTW.

Hi, Fred.
