I think Cyrus is on to something here. You might even try to take it a step forward and call your club "Free Mammograms".

Why not? After all, this site is called Physics Forums (instead of the more correct Physics Fora).

Just call it the club, but don't expect any girls to join.

"The peons?"


I know: would make for a better punk band.
