The vaunted P.J. Media contest to name the “X21s” is over. As you know, I endorsed “hybrids” in this race. And I explained why the other choices were not as well suited to the task. But, alack, it was not to be. The label which garnered the most votes — 21% of all those cast — was “freerangers,” a nomenclature borrowed from chicken husbandry. My congratulations to Bruce Lawrence, the coiner of the term.
