You are probably right that the name doesn't have that much to do with the stigma. The process could be called runleap and I'm sure there would be some that looked down on people who were in it. I think the reason it stuck to me is that I actually think the word "psychanalysis" (which I'm beginning to think is the one that was debated in the movie) is very pretty.

Comet,
