Along a similar off-topic tangent, Jonathan, how do you pronounce your last name? The katakana in the picture reads like "Corvette" with a B...

It sounds like they got it about right then - it's pronounced with a hard "t", and not as if it were a French name.

I'll admit I worried a bit about the sign...for all I know it could read "crazy man from Colorado" or some such...:)

The katakana transliterates to "jonasan corubetto". And it is nice to be able to put a name to a face after a half a decade reading LWN.
