P.S. I suggested on Twitter that they have a naming contest...but I quickly realized that Twitter is not the right forum. 144 characters will not be enough for many of the suggestions.

The Food Allergy and Anaphylaxis Initiative Network Committee of Hope and Change? Domain name is probably available...

Wow! Let's hope things are run more like FAI...

Hallelujah! (Not that FAAN hasn't done a lot of good over the years, but FAI has been a financial powerhouse.)

I'm extremely optomistic even though I don't know anything about John Lehr beyond what was announced. However, his background in medical non-profit could be a much more promising fit than straight from for-profit. It fits with the consistent message I've read from FAI which embraces the allergic disease model rather than a socialized one. I could sort of envision some professional networking and support of it in tech and marketing.
