Both good points Ken.  Actually LAU is just interesting sounding and 
puzzling enough to be a very good name for a band.  It's like REM or U2 
or something.  LAU - it's mysterious and even pronounceable!

If there's space and bandwidth, allowing folks to drop any tasty tidbit 
on the server is a good thing.  There might be some very nice and 
thought-provoking stuff lurking out there in people's medicine bags...
