I fixed that some time ago.  I was a little surprised that the old name was
still in use and sent the correction to Ross, who changed it that day.  It
had been corrected in BACKBONE.NA when I chenged the theme, but not in all
distributions.  Ross is in charge of the AREAS.TXT file and that's where
the old name was.
