Just like our current C'do's, a hodge podge of factory parts that everyone adapted as desired or by fate. Even identical twins have unique fingerprints.

So when they start building Nortons, Ivory Calthorpes, Coventry Eagles etc in Cape Town we will at least have the correct terminology, what an erudite and international group we are !

D/t acupuncture travel and mentors, I can't wait for the spelling translations of those into Chinese via Arabic letters then attempts to pronounce it so its not an obscene phrase to the native speakers. At least 5 ways to make the m sound. Advertising slogans like - "Satisfies like a good desert" could sound like, "Feels like a Crock of S... [no not stew]
