Names

Was there some reason why we had to change the name of the Government Accounting Office to the "Government Accountability Office"? Do we really need management buzzwords in an agency name?

(and you'll see on their web site that they simply list themselves as "GAO" and not under the new name - you have to dig to find out that the name changed back in July)

The other attorneys whose work I occasionally review always raise an eyebrow when I tell them about the name change. Stupid buzzword-happy Congress.
