    My 2 cents worth......Forget it.

    Doesn't tradition count for anything anymore.

    And last but not least, why change a perfectly good name. What's wrong with ESSES.....and I don't mean that as a purely rhetorical question.

    What would be the point of a name change.
    Before it became Ruprecht, my Porsche was a '70 911 T

    It's like going from 911 T to Ruprecht.

    NESTLS makes the very best...chaaawk-lit.



    Nothing wrong with the name of the mag or the group. I learn stuff from both that applies just as well to my humble T.

    ETSLS? Rhymes with Edsels.

    I like Esses. It's the heritage of the group regardless of the current focus. It also reminds me of my favorite section of many road courses.
