Hi Lace Makers There is something to be said, and prestige as well, in belonging to an organization with a name that has been around for a while. I joined the lacing community only a few years ago and took great pride in joining IOLI. I, for one, would hate to see the name go...
I am as excited today as I was when I purchased my first pillow. I felt like I was joining a well know lace group. Personally I would like to see you all use your time to make lace and give up the name change ideas.

We don't necessarily need to keep the word "International" in our possible new name; but as a practical matter, the first issue for both consideration and action is: shall we change our present (objectionable?) name? If we decide that we should change it, then that is the time for ideas for a new name. A naming contest, maybe, such as was held so successfully when we were looking for a logo for the CRLG? With the winner even getting a freebie, such as the new pin that would be designed? But the issue is: shall we change the name? If yes, let's get on with that question. If no, let's shut up about it. -- Aurelia - To unsubscribe send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] containing the line: unsubscribe lace [EMAIL PROTECTED] For help, write to [EMAIL PROTECTED] - To unsubscribe send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] containing the line: unsubscribe lace [EMAIL PROTECTED] For help, write to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
