Re: Dept name?

Lm_Netters,
     I like the term "The Department of Informatics."  The definition
of "Informatics" as far as I can tell is the systematic management of
electronic information. As information gets repackaged from
print-on-paper to digital we will find ourselves managing electronic
information more and more.  If we don't some one else will.
