So I am assuming they met through Yahoo Chat or something? Or was it just that having "iChat" or "MSN Messenger" as a middle name was just a little too weird? :D

I found it interesting that Cornelia and Nonu Dragoman are both from Transylvania. Very interesting name of Yahoo. His first name is Lucian, most are know and go by the first name. Just a nice way to compliment the link that brought them together in marriage.

If the Censure of Yahoos could any Way affect me, I should have great
Reason to complain that some of them are so bold as to think my Book of
Travels a mere Fiction out of mine own brain; and have gone so far as to
drop Hints, that the Houyhnhnms and Yahoos have no more Existence than
the Inhabitants of Utopia.
