    International Pest Risk Mapping Workgroup – IPRMW – pronounced “i-p-r-m-w”
    International Pest Risk Research Group – IPRRG – pronounced “i-perg”
    International Pest Risk Modelling and Mapping Research Group – IPRMMRG – pronounced “i-per-ma-merg”
    International Society for Pest Risk Modelling and Mapping – ISPRMM – pronounced “is-prim”

    Wow… I’m surprised – after all this time and careful consideration, these were the best four options available? With all due respect, we may be good at our science, but has anyone thought to consult a professional marketing person with this identity/name challenge?

    And as an aside, shouldn’t ISPRMM actually be pronounced I-SPERM? Isn’t that a little off topic?
