Ribbing aside, I am a fan of both organizations, particularly the Foundation folks. But when folks at the Young Americans Foundation get peeved at being called YAF, I really have no sympathy. The two groups have similar missions, similar philosophies, similar fans etc. I know there are plenty of inside baseball differences between the two groups which are very significant to people close to them. But if you were inclined to be upset at being mis-identified as YAF why in the world would you choose the same initials for your group? Itโ€™s like someone starting a communications company called American Telephone and Text and being furious whenever someone calls it AT&T. Just my two cents.
