But then you have to define the FLL year. For example, FLL Body Forward (this year's game that will be revealed in about a month) - is that 2010 or 2011? The majority of the games will be played in 2010, but some competitions are in Jan or Feb 2011, and the World Festival will be April 2011 in St. Louis. FRC on the other hand goes from Kickoff to Championship all in 4 months of one calendar year.

Greg, some of the suggestions you made are perfectly clear. Others have some unfortunate suggestions. For example, TWRP - my first thought is twerp, not Tower Power. Try pronouncing the word to see if you get some other unwanted words. I believe that Lunacy should have a U in it, perhaps LUNC, I guess just because we seldom put in a U when a vowel is missing.
