Read my link blog and you’ll see how Maryam and I almost ended up in Genoa among dozens of other interesting blog posts hand picked from more than 500 feeds. I’m caught up with feeds. Now onto email…
But, here in Geneva, it’s fondue time!
You say Genoa, I say Geneva…

Yikes, that reminds me of tech support here in the US! Just like programming, language barriers can really mess things up š

I was born in Genoa, Italy and it would have been a pleasure to have you here. By the way, I’ve just had a trip in the US and noticed that you know Genoa for an interesting (and unknown, for us) feature and not for the ‘right’ one: Genoa Salami. Have a look at my blog for it š http://pierg.wordpress.com/2007/02/01/genoa-salami/

Maryam’s LiveSpace is down at the moment, so I’ll comment here.
The problem is not helped by the fact that the official name of Genoa is Genova (as in “Christopher Columbus was Genovese” although in the spirit of using the English naming of that fellow Cristofero, Genoese would be used by we-uns).
And the Italian for Geneva is Ginevra (gee-nev-ra). I wonder how they keep it all straight in Switzerland, where the sort-of-official languages are French-German-Italian. You’re in the French part now, so it could be doubly exciting!
Hey, drop in on the ECMA and ISO folk and see how they are bearing up under their newfound attention.
