Christos Voskrese! Christos Anesti!

Logos, it is part of the transition. We cannot use the name on products we sell in our store. We depend on the store to stay afloat, so while we will remain with the rocorcafe.com URL as long as the synod allows, we will also take on another name & URL in addition to the name you well know and love.

Nik, I just wanted to say that I love the way the banner looks with St Euphrosynus the patron of cooks, I agree that it seems to fit especially with 'have a drink of the truth' .

Euphrosynus/Euphrosynos

I've seen Euphrosynos spelled Euphrosynus, sometimes even both ways on the same site! I wonder which one is a more correct translation?

I decided to change my vote.... I want to vote for Euphrosynos Cafe instead of Old Calendarist Cafe... when I first read the choices I didn't know that Euphrosynos was a Saint's name and that he is the patron of cooking(I didn't know how to spell his name either...I've just always heard his name pronounced) now that I know, I want to change my vote :)
Thanks!

I don't think the spelling matters much. John of Damascus, John of Damaskos; Gregory Nazianzus, Gregory Nazianzos; etc. :) I think some are just a bit more anglicanized than others? shrugs

If everyone is ok with the new selection, I'd give it my vote too. Though perhaps it wouldn't be a bad idea to pick a saint normally associated with traditionalists... but, um, not my decision, so... :)

I change my vote too.

I change my vote to Euphrosynos too. So that makes as of this posting, 5 votes for it and thus the winner.

Well, what you say goes, Nicholas :) Sorry to all who didn't get a chance to vote, but we needed to move quickly once we got the word that it had to be changed.
