"Wiki" is a Hawaiian word that means "fast." Ward Cunningham, the inventor of the wiki concept (http://www.c2.com) originally called his Perl script "wiki wiki web," meaning (exact literal translation from Hawaiian... NOT) "really, really fast way of getting collaborative web content up." Given the difficulty of trademarking words in common use, I would be very surprised if anyone could do anything about any use you choose to make of "wiki." :::: Because the -- all which is on the table begins to address the big cost drivers. For example, how benefits are calculated, for example, is on the table. Whether or not benefits rise based upon wage increases or price increases. There's a series of parts of the formula that are being considered. And when you couple that, those different cost drivers, affecting those -- changing those with personal accounts, the idea is to get what has been promised more likely to be -- or closer delivered to that has been promised. Does that make any sense to you? -- George W.
