Dan's Journal of Skepticism

Yesterday I put out a call for members of the public to help build a list of acceptable names for the Australian Vaccination Network.

In a single day we managed to create a list of 50 suitable names for the AVN to adopt.

Dear Australian Vaccination Network

I writing to you in order to offer some assistance in coming up with a new name. On the 24^th of December my investigators notified me that you had attempted to register the name “Australian Vaccination Sceptics Network” with the Australian Securities & Investments Commission. Since it is unacceptable for you to adopt such a misleading name I saw fit to register it myself. As you can see online at: www.danbuzzard.net/journal/avn-fails-to-obtain-new-name.html 

So as an act of good faith I have asked your critics to help compile a list of names that we feel would be more appropriate for your organisation. Mine is #1, the rest have been added by members of the public.
