    That's the ticket. Any perceived problems just change the name and they will all go away. Unfortunately, forum rules prohibit posting a detailed explanation. Oh well.

    Re-brand, re-imagine, embrace the paradigm shift into the new generational intersectionality of inclusivity and diversity in amateur radio.

    There. FIFY. :)
