Say, did you guys consider "NVLTC"? I realize that Northern Virgina is
traditionally called "Nova" or "NoVa" or "NOVA", and I don't mean to be
insulting in any way to suggest anything else, but if you went with NVLTC,
then you'd be 5 letters just like the other three.
OTOH, NVLTC might look like Nevada LEGO Train Club since NV is the U.S.
postal code for Nevada. :)
Just a thought anyway! (I don't suppose all LTC's will always be able to
be 5 letters. :)
