So if I'm reading it right, that's us, Kaare, Jasper, Sben, and Sven Seeland (who may be Sben, I'm not sure) all with babies due in Nov-Dec. That's like a mini-gamer explosion! Someone had better get writing games to play with young children! Dice have been a good thing for our 8 and 5 y.o. to help resolve disputes in their play. Although in the words of Sebastian (8) "We don't need dice, Dad. We use logic."
This makes Sben go "Sben != Sven"
... Although Ms. Sben, a linguist by training, could talk a bit about how B and V sounds are linguistically related, and how it's difficult for English speakers to distinguish between Sb and Sv sounds.
This makes MB go "Aha."
I was wondering if the proximity of the B and V keys had anything to do with it, as well.
