Listmates,

Is there any credibility to the notion that this may actually be good for 
Molly in the sense that it is keeping her name before the public? If Molly 
is not demeaned and the name indicates admiration for her then is is 
possible that you may not want to squelch it?

I'm certainly not advocating this notion but I do wonder about such things 
from time to time.

Respectfully submitted,
