David,
Interesting point bringing up the cost to change the name.

Well
thus is a choice that seems to me ,was not a wise one.
The name was “designed” that is to say, fabricated. it does not convey any ideas, just a corporate emptiness.
The name was purchased at a high price, with money that should belong to the community, but the moneys of washoe med apear to be spent as if they where not of the comunity but rether of the defacto owners, the suits.
If they asked anyone, the only heard whet they wanted to hear, because the common joe blow would rather have those funds spent on real needs, not corporate fanciness.

I will say that seeing the new colors and logo today when I was driving in did give the perception that the hospital was young and hip. I just wonder if young and hip is the right perception to give when dealing with people’s lives?

Ha…. I was thinking that yesterday when leaving work… and I was thinking to myself “Renown, ha, thats fully, renown for what?”. We’ll see, I’m still happy my hospital is St. Marys. I do like the colors and the logo.
