The word santi is described by the band as another word for "Cheers" or "Thank You".


William Beckett has explained the origin of Santi and how it came to be the album title in an Australian music magazine "Blunt" in the following story: "Adam and I went to the same high school, and there was this dude named Josh Santiago who we went to school with. I was doing a solo project at the time, and i was listening to different music than most people - stuff like The Get Up Kids, The Promise Ring and Jimmy Eat World - and people there just didn't get me or what i was like. So this one guy in particular, Josh Santiago, gave me a hell of a time, like busted my chops and called me negative names like "fag" and stuff. Anyway, he had a Dave Matthews cover band called Santi, because his name was Santiago and he's just that kind of guy. So we started saying Santi as everything that wasn't him - everything that was positive, just because he was such a negative dude and such a terrible person. So we started saying santi as something funny or cool, kinda like "cheers" or we say it as a greeting, like, 'Whats up, Santi?' So it's a word we've been using for a long time and when it came time to name the record we listened to it and went like, 'Santi!' - it always had to be the name."

Santy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (207 words)
Santy is a worm virus created in Perl to exploit a vulnerability in phpBB software which spread through and used Google to spread across the internet.
Within 24 hours of its release on 20 December 2004, a large number of websites (estimated by some at 30,000 to 40,000) were attacked by Santy.
There have been variants of the worm, some which use alternative search engines after Google blocked queries from the Santy worm, and an anti-Santy worm which attempts to patch vulnerable installations [1].
In Memory - Santy Runyon (832 words)
Santy's hot dance arrangements (including Busse's theme, "Hot Lips"), with their shuffle rhythm and driving bass lines, were the hit of the day.
Santy was instrumental in helping me to get my internet business going and through the past few years has been so helpful in so many ways.
Santy will be missed and remembered greatly by those acquainted with him and his innovations for future improvements in the woodwind line will be missed as well.
