This reminds me of the name for acronym for the INTERCAL programming
language. Taken from the INTERCAL primer;
"The full name of the compiler is "Compiler Language With No Pronounceable
Acronym", which is, for obvious reasons, abbreviated 'INTERCAL'."
Let's face it, STUDS is at least as good a name as MUGs or BUGs. STUDS (and
SLUGS) has a direct connection to Lego, whereas the mexicans and cane-toads
are just 'users' (of what being the immediate question that isn't answered).
Perhaps we should call the Brisbane group BASIL (Brisbane Advancement
Society for Initiates of Lego), so that the usage of Lego becomes more
clear. :)

David Drew.
Never let a Discordian design your acronyms.
