My interpretation of BrickBay is as follows:
'bay' is synonymous with 'area'
Therefore BrickBay is interpreted as 'brick area.'
This makes sense as far as describing the site.
Similarly, eBay, assuming the 'e' stands for 'electronic' as in e-mail and
other related 'e-'s, would translate to 'electronic area.' This does not
make sense in translation like the way BrickBay does.
If this is truly the connotation, then does eBay plan to shut down the whole
internet because it is an 'electronic area'?
