Thanks for taking the time to find that.  Also explains the move away from the "K" prefix.

Harald, it could have been worse... pixie, selfie?  ROFL... but some folks liked those... it's
all personal preference - hard to get everyone to agree.

Seriously though, as I mentioned above, I totally understand how difficult it can be to
