The last time I looked the Yeti is Himalayan and Nessie is from
Scotland.

All right -- I know I should just silently delete this, and let it
go, but it's like a bad traffic accident, I just have to sneak a
look.
In exactly what way do you connote American-style out of any of
those names? The fact that Big Foot is a mythical being often
associated with the US northwest? (I think the Canadians talk about
Big Foot too...)
And racist?? Come on, that's certainly a reach...
When in doubt, accuse others of being provincial, and act damn
indignant. Curse their nationality too...

All these American-style names are verging on the racist.
This is world-wide code, not f---ing American-wide code.

How about BigFoot?
Probably not the best for a server application. Might make one
think of the footprint involved ... and isn't one of the major
reasons to moving to mod_perl to reduce the overhead and
footprint of the server?
Now Yetti no conotation there. Or Swamp Beast, Sasquatch, or
possibly even the local favorite Nessie (I'd love to see Ora get
a picture of her on the next book!)
