Yes, though by then the LUV name and LUV domain would belong to LA. Still, I don't think that's a major obstacle. If (hypothetically) after the merger we decided to split from LA, then I'd expect that the LA people would be reasonable, and amicably let us have the LUV name/domain back. And even if they didn't, we could still reincorporate under a sufficiently different name. But I thought I should still point out that technical possibility. And, while I am myself (at the moment) opposed to disincorporation, I do appreciate that after any disincorporation (former) LUV members would make up a substantial fraction of LA members, and our interests would be important to LA. (But, as I've mentioned before, even under current arrangements, there's nothing to stop LUV members from becoming LA members as well -- and many already are.) > As has been stated so often on this thread, it is our activities which > define us, and attract the sponsorship.
