A few weeks back, I believe that I saw a request by AuctionSniper.com for ideas to get more users. I couldn't find the request once I'd come up with something. Is it possible that some people might be turned off by the term "sniper", in any sense? It may conjure up images of Sirhan,Sirhan, Lee Harvey Oswald, and the D.C. Snipers of 2003(?). Perhaps a name change should be considered?

I hope not! The Canadian army snipers have done great work in Afganistan knocking out terrorists from over a kilometer away with the Barrat 0.5 inch sniper rifle. More power to them! The nasty people you cite are not in the same league and, IIRC, Sirhan used a pistol so is not a sniper.
