Well, AACORN would put us first alphabetically. Here in the USA, it's
pretty common practice to add some extra A' when you want be listed first in
the phone book. In our local phone book we have (as an example)
AAA Affordable excavating and septic services
AAA All Trash
AAA Seal Coating
AATM Call Center
A Alternative Pest Solutions
But seriously, I think it does do a better job of reflecting what are
becoming.
Happy holidays,
Steve
Ps - and a special thanks to the web team for investing all their time and
effort on this.
