: Good job, Jack! By the way, Hirschsprung's is one of the most commonly misspelt names in medical wrting, as reported in The Lancet several years ago. Poor guy. All 'cause he's Danish :-)//Checked w/dictionaries - And I thought your name comes from dough!

Thank you. I sympathise with him. My own name is often misspelt: Doherty, Docherty, Dowty; or mispronounced - I don't mind Duffty too much, but I'm not so keen on Dotty or Dirty.
