I personally would like to see both halves of the old Southwest Region
adopt new names. I would like the new region to be called the Pacific
Southwest (because it is still basically the southwest of the country,
and it borders the Pacific). I would like the other half of the old
region to be called the Desert Southwest (since it is also in the
southwest region of the country, but consists of mostly desert terrain).
That's my 2 pennies worth. (It's a good thing our name is not being
voted on by the rest of the country or we may end up being named the
west wackos.)
