Ideas
Hello all. :)
I was thinking the other day about starting a sort of registry for system names. I haven't seen any two systems with the same name yet, but it might be a good idea to have a regularly updated list somewhere, to try to prevent this from happening. Not that it would be a disaster if two systems had the same system name, but it would be good for systems looking for a new name--partially to give ideas but mostly so they know which ones to avoid. Does anyone think this would be a good idea? If so, does anyone have a website they could host it on? If not, I probably can; I'm just not very computer literate so if someone more capable can do this, everyone would be better off.
Also, I've been longing for some sort of subtle symbol to wear out in public to identify ourselves as multiple. Like the rainbow used by the gay community, or the parrot sometimes used by the poly community. Something like a pin of a winged toaster. ;) I know ideas for a universal symbol of multiplicity have been batted back and forth for a long time; I'd like to actually get something started that can be worn by all of us daily, a kind of badge of pride. What do you think?

I also agree on the whole pin concept. Maybe we should have a contest of sorts in this and other positive Plural communities for design. I know there are a lot of creative people around here. I don't know what the prize would be though. We'd love to be judges, by the way. ;)

Also, if any of you think of a pin design, feel free to share it! I'm not sure we'd have a few judges, though; it'd be better to have a poll open to all members of the community.
