Btw, what was it I wanted to point out to you? Oh yes, the following exchange on QI:
Spephen Fry: "...no, 'Viet Cong' and 'Charlie' and all the rest were all slang terms given to them by the Americans. They actually took their name from their leader, Ho Chih Minh — they are properly known as the 'Minh'"
Clive Anderson (in Peter Sellers voice): "Min?"
(Yes, I know that Fry's "fact" above, like a lot of the stuff on QI, is completely untrue, but no matter.) 8^]
