JoSPer --> JaSPer?
For those that care, I'm wondering if we can rename JoSPer to JaSPer.
JaSPer like the friendly ghost. FWIW, JaSPer also means something:
jas.per \'jas-p*r\ \-p*-re-\ n [ME jaspre, fr. MF, fr. L jaspis, fr.
Gk
iaspis, of Sem origi]n; akin to Heb ya-shehachek>pheh jasper 1: an
opaque
cryptocrystalline quartz of any of several colors; esp : green
chalcedony
2: a stoneware often given delicate coloration with metallic stains
while
embossed designs are left white 3: a blackish green - jas.pery aj

Peace, Anil +<:-)

I agree with the name change also. I've already heard a coleague pronounce "JSP" as "JASP" (here in Brazil, it sounds "brittish" like J-AH-SP). So, +1.
