AI Thread Summary
The forum is seeking suggestions to rename the "PF Lounge" category, encouraging members to propose creative and fun alternatives. Participants are sharing various ideas, such as "Eigenlounge," "The Particle Zoo Lounge," and "Schrodinger's Saloon," while some members express a preference to keep the original name due to its relaxed nature. There is a mix of humor and serious suggestions, with discussions about the implications of changing a familiar title. Ultimately, the final decision will rest with the PF administration, but community input is actively encouraged. The goal is to enhance the category's appeal while maintaining its essence.

L1 through L3 are just for unstable people. You wouldn't like them :smile:
L5 is still being furnished.

But one could argue that we're already there! And even worse: the entire universe is already there.

The Peano Bar

Perhaps too mathematical and niche.

@Greg Bernhardt : Maybe you could do themes for the cycling names: Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics,...

Edit: It's also space-filling!

Member names could be pulled from the last-posted thread in General Discussions.

Edit: Or rather than member names, use thread topics.

Suggestion @Greg Bernhardt is to post somewhere the present and previous names of this lounge. It will be good for historical content. I believe it was the MC Square for a while, but already I don't recall what we called it for the month after that. :nb)
