http://www.pdxlinux.org does not have the phrase "Portland Linux User 
Group" anywhere, only "Portland Linux/Unix Group" or PLUG.

The name was changed, you can't also call it "Portland Linux User Group" 
too. Pick one or the other.

It's not like anyone in PDXLUG tries to intentionally confuse or mislead 
newcomers that we are PLUG. That has never happened and I doubt ever 
will. I would venture to say that most PDXLUGers would rather not be 
associated at all, anyway.
