I thought with a little work the Wii could be used as the basis for physical therapy excercises? Range of motion etc. Make a game of it and it could really help people in need.

Getting the elderly moving is a great aspect if it's done with proper oversight.

Flossy used to mean soft, silky, velvety... so a variation made sense as a girl's name. No one would have predicted its later similarity to "floozy"/"floosie", which is a 20th century invention, coming from the same root word.

A lot of modern names are going to seem just as silly in a couple decades.

my friend brought his Wii to the beach. my parents had some friends over, all of them aged 57 or older, and they were having a blast playing Wii Sports. Bowling was the favorite, followed by tennis. One of the guys REALLY enjoyed watching us play Resident Evil 4 on the Wii.
