    Naturally I didn't feel inspired enough to read all the links for you, since I already slaved away for long hours under a blistering sun pressing the search button after typing four whole words! - Quzah

    Not completely correct. The 'e' in the end of 'Bjarne' shoul also be pronounced. I guess Adrian knows this best, though.
