Psst! Perry! WesterFELD, it's WesterFELD! :) I made the same mistake the first few times I saw Scott's name.

Oops, and I notice I've spelt his name correctly on the side-bar blog-roll as well. Y'know I try to be careful but... my typing fingers run away from me. Well, that's my excuse and I'm sticking to it.
