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 (Salt Lake Area Bricksters)
ULUG-How about just plain Utah Lego Users Group?

My nominations are WAFOL and GULF.  Perhaps we should keep thinking or open
this up to everyone?

I am ok with WAFOL.  I like it more and more.
