All writers assume a certain level of knowledge on

issue each time something is said. As for NCI, the
names of many groups don't exactly reflect the group's
publicly stated goals. For example, the Red Cross
doesn't go around painting crosses red and the
Salvation Army doesn't fight religious wars.
On the other hand the symbol for the Red Cross is, well,
a red cross!
But how does that "Red Cross" reflect their specific goals? Remember, I
was addressing how a chosen name has a some bearing on the group's goals (a
comment about "No-Code International" versus "No Code TEST International").
And the "soldiers" of the Salvation Army wear an appropirate
uniform. So,.....
Camaflage BDU's? Few people fight wars in a dress uniform. ;-)
