What country/nationality are those names? I'm jealous. They sound straight out of a
Tolkien novel.

who went by the name of "Murf", did you?
No, not that I remember. Are you talking about someone at
Meridian? I didn't work there, I worked for AIRS (Automated
Information Retrieval Systems) back then. The guy I worked
for was named Eldon. I collaborated with (over the phone) a
a guy named Wink at Meridian. What was his last name? Like
the chipmunk guy I think... Seville? We were one of Meridian's
first customers on the East Coast. Wink wrote their custom
drivers. Before mscdex, before Yellow Book, back in the dark
days.
