Also, re: Kittenplan, I just remembered that plan = 'map' in French. So "Kittenmap" -- or if you prefer, "Kittenface". |

"mimsymary" Also, re: Kittenplan, I just remembered that plan = 'map' in French. So "Kittenmap" -- or if you prefer, "Kittenface". " Thanks for pointing that out! Makes Ann Kittenplan's name even more ironic if you knew 'plan' is 'map' in French. I didn't. Kittenplan is in the top ten of just plan mean IJ characters. Another one of DFW's layered, downright funny character names. |

If you're going for bilingual puns, Kittenplan = "quitte un plan" = "leaves a map"? probably just a coincidence... |
