Always be very suspicious of someone who has no vowels in their last name I had an immunology I prof back at UNC many years ago who's name was Ng Ng. No vowels to be seen anywhere. He went ballistic the first day of class when someone addressed him as Dr. NIG" Well just excuse the ever loving shit out of him for not knowing his name was pronounced "Ing". His english was crap to say the least. We pretty much studied the texbook because his lectures were hit and miss at best. It was one of the hardest "B's" I ever worked for my entire time in undegrad.
