What I care about is understanding why the current naming scheme was chosen so we can have informed debate. So far no one has told me my obvservations are incorrect. Whether or not this historical usage is an important consideration is a discussion that comes after we have an understanding of what the historical usages are. Without an understanding of why the current naming scheme was chosen, and how its been used.. we are not in a solid position to evaluate a change in policy. I challenge you... as a proponent of change.. to give us your understanding as to why the current naming policy is in place. -- I'm just a proponent of you coming to terms with the fact that your instinct to become involved in every single thread just wasn't helpful or insightful this time. Perhaps there's a chance... however small... that you might actually be .... gasp .... wrong. Really, a viable option was even presented in this thread to deal with your concern. But if you have no historical insight or judgement of your own on the matter, let someone who does pipe in if they think its important, instead of sidetracking the conversation into oblivion. Not everything has to be explained to _you_ before proceeding. TTN, Sean
