AN AUSTRIAN VILLAGE IS VOTING TO CHANGE THE NAME

We're not turning into an x-rated blog but the citizens of Fucking, Austria are going to vote on changing the name of their town and I thought you'd like to know.
 
The town and its name have been around for a long, long time and, of course, it's a big tourist attraction with folks having their picture taken next to the sign.  Unfortunately, the tourists keep taking the signs as a souvenir and the folks in town are tired of replacing it.
 
They tried changing the name back to the 16th century spelling of the town which was Fugging but the tourists snapped up those signs too.  So, it will be interesting to see what they come up with for a new name.
