Response #1: We should tell them we'd be happy to help them
out, if they learn to spell "organization" like we do here in the
Western Hemisphere. Tell them they sound like Brits, for crying
out loud.

#2: Is olive.net free?--could we use that? Or could they? Or could
we even grab olive.com? It does seem like it's slicker for us to
have some variant on "olive," since that is the most common
shorthand we use (and others use for us). Ultimately, we could
link it to the Olive Starlight Orchestra page.

#3: If we want a shorter domain name and are willing to give up
"olive," perhaps OSO (net, com, or org) would be available?

Deb--there are several variations on the "P" word, FWIW. (Or
maybe Dean is using yet another misspelling of Hinklemeyer...?
You know, Dean--I've been meaning to talk to you about your
spelling problem for some time. [Let me guess--I got it wrong,
too. Now--is it Steckel, or Steckal?)

#4: Oooh, ooh, I know--let's register "oliff," a la Mike's entry in the
old logs that had Chairman Mao speaking to us in a cheesy
Asian accent. I believe it was something like "how does that glab
you oliffs?" (Or maybe "oliffs" was Hitler talking to us. I believe we
were spoken to by all the major dictators.)
