RE: Renaming RPG

Since birds are descended from dinosaurs I think it should be named after a
bird.

I like Roadrunner and Raven, but they are taken. How about Oriole?

        Very creative John but one thing is missing for me.  I will like to
have a
        connection back to the language, like a tie back not necessary an
        abbreviation but that's fine 2.  So, what will be the tie back with
Gecko or
        Gekko and Lizard?????
