Shouldn't you also do April 1st?  I'm nervous about using Fearless
Leader without Dave Van Domelan's permission.  Of course, he would be
out of it very early on. :)

If Saxon agrees then we could dump Bizarre Boy, Organic Lass and
Pocket Man from the list.  No need to bring a lot of characters out of
retirement.  I just wanted to see if there were enough potential
candidates.

Keep in mind that somebody could say to Wikiboy "You'd be the perfect
leader!" and he would be.  He could be higher up on the list.  Cannon
Fodder could also serve as leader because Stomper would theorize that
the others are dead but Cannon Fodder would come back.  When he
doesn't come back the theory would be that they are all still alive
somewhere.  So Domestic Lad also comes off the list.

California Kid is close to the end.  If you want to do him then
perhaps the secret can be left between you and Rob and the rest of us
are in the dark.
