Life's tough for a socialist in London.... le sigh.

There's been some great names suggested already, but here's a few ideas about London:
  • It's on the fork of the Thames River, so anything to do with rivers
  • It's known as the "Forest City", so anything to do with forrests/trees
  • It's major employers are the Labbatt Brewery, London Life (insurance,) GM's Electro-Motive Deisels (locomotives,) General Land Dynamics (military vehicles,) 3M (Canadian HQ,) and the biotech and life sciences industries
  • It has a military reserve base and many war memorials
  • Sports teams from London include:
  • It is the home of such notable people as Dr. David Suzuki, Eric Lindros, and Rachel McAdams
  • Sun Media holds a monopoly on news media, so we get to see the world through the eyes of Americans
