Just an aside for enatik, in the UK pakkly, if spelled wrong as done innocently here, can end up as a very racist slur for Pakistanis. I'd seriously consider changing the name.

Ouch. Agreed, that's the first thing that came to my mind, and it's an unfortunate to see it happen here. Definitely consider a name change!

Wait, do you mean Paki?

It's two whole letters away.

-1 for name change.
