Even in company with the two NERV votes, from distinguished members of 
Bill Smith DART Communicators, already on this message, I will submit my 
vote for NEAR  -  Neighborhood Emergency Amateur Radio.  Why?  
We are "Neighborhood" (part of our current temporary name), and we are 
"Emergency".
We are "Amateur" radio, as distinguished from the many other radio 
groups involved in   
     emergencies, especially since many of the unknowing think that Ham 
radio is superfluous or is
     disappearing.
We are "NEAR", right in your neighborhood,  and based on our group's 
growth rate of which
     can be proud, we will be in more neighborhoods and therefore nearer 
to more people.
NEAR is a short name, goes well with DART or CERT. 
The name "NEAR" alone has a meaning, a valid one since we are close, and 
involves no
     translation or question as do MARS, RACES, ARES, and other names.
With its descriptive name, "NEAR" is easier to remember, by others and 
us, than more involved
     abbreviations and names.
