What is in a name?

["Philip Veerman" <>]

What is the basis to this complaint that "Black-necked Stork" is too much of a 
mouthful? Have you looked at the names of many of our honeyeaters, 
cuckoo-shrikes, fairy-wrens, etc. Most are longer than Black-necked Stork.

By the way, my trivial off topic reminder to all of you who forwarded these 
messages ironically discussing word use and pedantry. I'll mention again: 
"Whats" is not a word.
