I kept wanting to put an R in there for some reason, it just kept looking
like cordory to me. Thank you for the pronunciation, outside your family is
this a common name? I've never heard it before.

Scott Costello
Not related to Frank, Elvis, or Lou Costello

It's Dutch, and not all that common.  It wasn't until I was into my 20's
until I met other folks with my last name that I wasn't related to.

Hah, I got you beat! It wasn't until my 40's (all of a month or two ago)
that I met someone with my last name that I'm not directly related to...

Frank

I've [never] met someone with my last name who isn't related to me - in fact, my
understanding is that absolutely everyone with my last name is related to me.

Do I have to admit that I have the 40 years beat, too?  ;-)

No, you can't beat the record until you actually find someone not
related to you! :-) :-) :-)

Frank

(...) No, I can't stop setting a new record every day until I actually find someone named Schlickbernd not related to me (and yes, the two black women named Schlickbernd are related). :-P -->Bruce<-- (21 years ago, 6-Jun-03, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, FTX)
