  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)

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).
