Shampoo: Stupid Mousse have funny name. All Chinese family names last. Only
backwards Japanese have family names first. By way, is government sitting
on ass? Where ev.. evacuw... when they getting us out? This place no
good anymore.

BEEP! Sorry buster, ya got that wrong!
We Chinese have our family AKA surnames first. The only time it's placed
last is when we take on a christian name. So in this fic, Lynn Mu-Tsu is
correct while Lynn Maximilian is wrong (It shoulda have been Maximilian
Lynn. Lynn Minmei could be correct if Minmei is taken as Min-Mei).


Lim Tzu Chan
(Yes I'm a Chinese and yes, My surname is Lim!)

DOH! Sorry. I was SURE that Chinese names were family-last. Thanks for the
heads-up.
