Actually it's been Hellas, Ellada, Ellas, and now after a poll back to where they started :)

I've been chuckling at this one. For those who don't know, there is no 'H' in Greek. So Hellas and Ellas are the same word and pronounced the same -- as if there is an 'H'. There's an aspirant mark like an apostrophe in actual Greek to indicate the 'H' sound.

Maybe USA should be USOA, for United States of America. :D
Should we start a poll anyone? :D

I prefer Home of the Largest Ball of Twine in the World (HLBTW, pronounced hullbitw).

I already voted that we change USA to "I hate pants" in the conferences. Got a couple of people who agreed with me, only a few thousand more to go!

I think we should demand to be THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA just to be long and annoying
