Thanks again to everybody who submitted suggestions for the name of my
march. Tetrahekaton certainly takes the cake as an attention-getter. It
does sound like a prescription that "ask your doctor if you need....", but
then again it sounds like one of the Super Heros....
THIS LOOKS LIKE A JOB FOR TETRAHEKATON!!!!!
I am now digesting the suggestions for simplicity and though a bit
presumptive, I think maybe.
"THE Jamestowne March" is the way to go.
I think I'll just submit the thing to the Foundation, and suggest they pick
a name.
