So, in that case we should choose a more emotionally-appealing name
than "fringe", which has connotations of madness and quackery in the
vernacular. How about:

Philly HighTower Society
Godel, Escher and Philly
MetaPhilly
IlladelFunc
Funcadelic
Middle-Aged Doods Sitting Around a Table at Algorithmics (TM)
Philtron
Ambient Philly
The Philadelphia Sandanista Contingent (this one will make us popular
with the CIA)
Technicus Prime
T-Unit
F-Unit
X Factor

If we're going to pick a new name, lets pick something majorly bad-ass.
