fuji(w?)hara and names
      Fri Jul 26 2002 05:52 AM

fujiwara (or is it fujiwhara) is mostly a westpac thing, hard to get things crowded enough in other parts of the world. wonder if the little one to the south will ever recover from the beating it took. anyhow, different topic.. names. the westpac names are now all drawn from countries in east asia.. thus the names fengshen and fung wong. it's PC that i can agree with, fair enough, but now the westpac name lists look.. appetizing. like i'd want to order them with steamed rice, egg drop soup.. and maybe a fortune cookie. everybody run, here comes kung pao and lo mein. well, not a problem: as ed demonstrates, westpac systems will hereafter be thought of in terms of numbers--typhoons 12 and 14. so unless youre thinking lunch combos #12 and #14, this will no longer cause confusion. anyway, the north indian basin had it right all along, don't even bother naming the things, give 'em a number and there ya go.
