But you're right, I didn't take perception of the power behind a name into account. Even a relatively harmless-sounding name like "dubya" seems to really polarize people. Weird. [img]graemlins/beigesmilewinkgrin.gif[/img]

debiler: Why? If you make a name taboo then it becomes special; whether positive or negative, names that are set apart are more special than other names. Recall that in the early Hebrew religion, the name of God was so special that only a very select few priests even knew the name and only the high priest was allowed to write or pronounce it.
I'm not saying we should forget what his organization has done over the years, but don't attach value to his name by making it forbidden.
