I wo...Chief Operating Officer — that’s gotta be it. I wondered for a second if “coo” could be Japanese for “two.” (I know it isn’t.) I guess Subaru is in there for the sake of the rhyme. Thank you, Steven.<br /><br />I just looked up “laser” — the <i>Oxford English Dictionary</i> has a first citation with “laser” (1960), followed by “Laser” (1960), and “LASER” (1961). Merriam-Webster says the word first appeared in 1957.
