I don't know that I would say sloppy, but definately Jarring. I remember
in HS Spanish reading about Machu Pichu. And youu'd be going along in Spanish
and "Hiram Bingham" would pop up. It probably wouldn't have been quite so
bad had it been a more latin-ish name, but Hiram Bingham?
*shrug* But then, I always have been weird. :-) Ask my friends. They'll
tell you ...
