That will work about as well as when Baja California Sur wanted to change the state name to Sudcalifornia (Southern California) and the northern state
to change from Baja California to Juarez.
These were proposed in 1974...
It turns out 'Baja' is just too cool a name to not use.

Its horrible but true. Their also abolishing Catholicism and building the worlds largest theme park in Punta Prieta.
With their successful track record how could they go wrong.

Well, of the two, I think a giant theme park is a bad idea.
As a compromise, maybe a medium sized theme park, and they just outlaw the institutional protection of child molestors, then they could still keep all
those classic old temples left over from the Cortez invasion.

Isn't "They're" a shortening of "They are"? I think "their" is appropriate here. Es Verdad???

Woody,
My English Major spouse is with you on this one.
Now, back to Blanca's Question.
One of the names they're (these are the guys who wear suits, don't live there and want to Trademark" Baja") thinking of for the theme park are
It's a free for all (If you have the cash or power).

I'm pretty sure the word showing possession is simply "theirs," no apostrophe (similar to "its," also showing possession, without an apostrophe).

I am laughing out loud .... I did NOT make myself clear, desculpame (sorry) ....
What I was told is that anyone who wants to start a company will be NOT be allowed to use the word BAJA in the company name ergo: Baja 1000 or Baja
Jungle or Baja Internet would not be allowed.

My internet provider (as well as cable TV) in New Mexico is "Baja Broadband". They provide services in several states in the USA.
