This is a very good idea - the (smaller font) subtitle could indeed pave the way for more academic / academic opinion pieces in the future. Simon.

But then I read in wikipedia and found that they also provide a broader alternative ("the record of the transactions of a society"), which makes it perfectly adaptable to a "Journal of the Carfree Movement"). So cool, great name and good idea. Randy Chatterjee wrote: The name "Carbusters" is a well-recognized mark and a symbol of the grassroots origins of this movement. "Journal of the Carfree Movement," as an appended parenthetical or subtitle, gives the publication a well-deserved air of the academe and connects it with the now broader social, economic, and political culture that it inspired. So, in short, go with both!

We would like to initiate a discussion in the list to hear all possible viewpoints and decide collectively if that's a good idea or not. We are thinking that adding this we would give to the magazine a more serious undertone, while retaining the old name, with all the positive things that stem from it, such as its recognizability and the fact that a name change would cost serious money currently. --------------------------------- Not happy with your email address?
