[dcw] Name update

[Robert McMurry]

hey happy hacker of creative awesomeness,

I feel strongly that the actual location should have a more catchy name ...
that is fine for the domain name in my opinion, but it is very blah in my
opinion and i would prefer a random pick from the list over this name ...
it is like saying lets make a vehicle and then making a car ... the most
easy and already established vehicle in america ( in davis perhaps making a
diamond frame bike is more appropriate for this metephor).  This seems like
a computer listened in on the name discussion and picked a name based on
keywords and picked what got said most.  that is all for my rant .. i was
not there so hard or me to complain but i prefer almost any name on the
list over this one.
