    Do you get emails from other random Onyeyiri's who are trying to track down relatives? My surname (Munn - I'm not afraid of people knowing my name, I just tend to prefer to use a handle, as I always have online) is more common in some areas (Ireland, Scotland, bits of France) than it is in the rest of the world (England and America especially), so I tend to get lots of emails from random people who are trying to trace their family tree -- Help me! I'm turning into a grapefruit!

    To explain Donald Knuth's relevance to computing is like explaining Paul's relevance to the Catholic Church. He isn't God, he isn't the Son of God, but he was sent by God to explain God to the masses.

                      What is the ethnic origin of your name? Onyeyiri doesn't exactly sound Anglo-Saxon, so I would suppose it is not too surprising that there are so few in England. Small island, after all. "Human imagination has been sculpted by the universe within which it was born" Hmmmm...

                              'fair dinkum' usually means 'dead set', or in more formal english 'I assure you that this is the case', or as a question 'are you certain that this is correct ?'. For example; Aussie1: I got up this mornin' and all four tyres on me ute were flat !!! Aussie2: Fair dinkum ? Aussie1: Yep. Example2: Aussie: Fair dinkum, she's a scorcher today. would roughly translate to 'my word, I must attest to the fact that today the weather is truly very warm'.
