(there aren't any typos in that phrase.)

>Are you looking for a slogan?

Kinda sorta, but I'm having trouble condensing that phrase to something
catchy enough to work. I still like that line, and it's going to go
somewhere. I like the philosophy behind it; instead of aiming to be the
best ever recreational activity, it just strives to be better than the most
ubiquitous competitor. ;)

>Be prepared for names and slogans to backfire.  

Yeah, I've seen that sort of thing happen before... but I'm sure I can come
up with something. In all likelihood, it will be stuffed in a doc file
somewhere, unless I can trim it down to a catchier phrase.
