No worries Joe! I feel that we can *all *contribute something to this
great project known as Fedora, so even YOUR opinion counts!...As for
myself....I'd like to see the names go in a more "Start Trek / Star Wars
/ Battlestar Galactica" direction myself......but hey....here's to
hoping!...

Actually, I wouldn't think it a bad thing for a release named Bernhardt.
Why?  Because the very first fedora was designed to be part of costume for
Sarah Bernhardt in the play Fedora in 1882 and started out strictly as a
woman's hat.  Later, of course, in the 1920s and 30s, it became popular among
politicians and gangsters. I doubt very many people would vote for it, but
it'd be a neat thing to suggest.
I actually like that idea!.....not to mention that the two greatest "wearers" of
fedoras in the mid-thirties was Humphrey Bogart and James Cagney.....so maybe
Bernhardt Humphrey?....or Humphrey Bernhardt?.....Sarah Cagney? James Humphrey?
Bogart Berhnardt? etc.....there's a million different combinations and then when
you throw in the "greats"?....Edward G. Robinson......Greta Garbo.....Lauren
Bacall.....Marilyn Monroe....etc..etc you could have a whole new genre of names
for the next 20 releases!...LoL!


EGO II

Oh give up and use names like Fizzgig Glorzoblast.
