  Re: More name ideas
 
(...) Well again my 2 cents... Just to be anti-uniform for anti-uniformity's sake is not allways the way to go in my opinion.

  Re: Utah name dicussion: lug or no lug
 
(...) The point was brought up elsewhere that SLLUGNET is too close to LUGNET by name, without any of the official affiliations (1) -- a potential trademark dilution problem for LUGNET.

  Re: Utah name dicussion: lug or no lug
 
Hi guys. I've seen the discussion going on for a bit here and I sense that it could go on longer still, so let me put my vote in for WAFOL (or even Wasatch Area Fans and Friends of Lego Entertainment). I'd really like to get the name nailed down (...) (25 years ago, 20-Oct-99, to lugnet.loc.us.ut, lugnet.loc.us.ut.slc, lugnet.org.us)

(...) Put the screeching brakes on this puppy. SLLUG is claimed by the Salt Lake Linux Users Group. And I already knew that. >:-P Cheers, - jsproat (25 years ago, 20-Oct-99, to lugnet.loc.us.ut, lugnet.loc.us.ut.slc, lugnet.org.us)
 
  Re: Name voting (Was: Utah name dicussion: lug or no lug)
 
It's a bummer that SLLUG is already taken. Do the Linux folks already have a site up? Does their name prevent us from using that name? Is SLLUG or SLLUGNET.com taken? Here's some more name options: How about SLLUF (Salt Lake Lego User Forum)? SLAB (...) (25 years ago, 21-Oct-99, to lugnet.loc.us.ut, lugnet.loc.us.ut.slc, lugnet.org.us)
