I don't know what that comedy TV show is, but it's ridiculous and
indeed excellent.  I'm digging the imaginary scene of you doing dishes,
shouting, "I'M IN THE CONE OF SILENCE!" :)

I think so far (as I finish the server set up) that I'm most leaning
towards:

 - Moritz and Alison's suggestion of Bifröst
 - Nick's suggestion of GoldenGate

Not sure yet… still open to suggestions!  Thanks for all the great
ideas so far.

Best regards,
