  Sure, get us the keyboard to do that!

  Anyway, in the paper, they use the tilde above the
'n', palatizing it, in the etymology, so I'm tending
to pronounce it, and offered this name to my brother
as one of the wierdest dino names (and it is!) as well
as *Shuvuuia* [incidentally, Ben, I say shuh-VOO-yah
or shoo-Voo-yah].
