I was present as a visitor at the Executive Board meeting held prior to the San Diego meeting and I participated in the discussions regarding the proposed name change. I also agree with Lowell and others. There is no compelling reason to change the name as proposed and many reasons not to change it. My vote is to NOT change the name.

Hello folks,

I agree with Lowell, Richard, Greg, Lisa and I am sure many

others - in short, the name ABRF states who we are and what we do. Leave

it as it is.
