 Well, I have to admit that Gwen sounds better with my Portuguese accent, b=
ut=20
I think only Bill can say that it sounds better for an English-speaking=20
person.

 About that geek comment, I don't see the connection... So, only geeks can=

find funny names? :O


 Anyway, I would like to know Tobias opinion on this.

 Besides, instead of fighting because of the name, why don't we discuss how=

the intro should look like: For instance, should we keep the helicopter and=

let a note to fall...

Just a few thoughts,
