NEED a COOOL name for an Internet Radio Show.

here's how these sound on the surface:

"the Spectrum" = like a sci-fi program
"the Clouded lens" = some show about artistic photography
"the Rainbow Bridge" = support group for homosexuals
"the Shattered Looking Glass" = some pretentious BBC type talk show
"Through the Lens: Autism Colored Glasses" (suggestion from a friend) = too NPRish
"In Whispers" = I'd stay away from "whispers"
"The Whispered Riddle"
"A Mumbled Riddle" = like some short story about a detective
"The Silent Scream" (good, but kind of a downer, no?) = sounds more like domestic abuse that goes unreported
"the Thought Bridge" = yeah, I like the thought-and-bridge aspect
"MindBridge" (my current fave)

Spectacular Spectrum

: )

You need something with 1 or 2 short syllable words. Something catchy and easy to remember.

The "spectrum" has meaning for people on the spectrum who are aware that they are on the spectrum.

For NT's and people on the spectrum who are not yet aware that they are on any "spectrum" ( ie dont go to websites and dont know about the autism spectrum concept) the word has no meaning.

Rainbows - to me it evokes Jessie Jackson's "Rainbow coalition"- an alliance between races. But it can be differing sexual orientations, or differing neurological types (aspes, adhd types, and neurotypicals), or any group of varying "colors"or flavors or types. So the good news is that "rainbows" can mean anything, the bad news is that rainbows can mean anything. So its too vague for an autism show.

So loose the "spectrum" and "rainbow" ideas.

Seeing the Spectrum is a good one I think. Another one could be Putting the Pieces Together, but I bet the latter is taken.

bump for the poll and update.

no votes? really?
one of fthem has to be better than the others...
