All right, already. Xara could be a Brazilian studying or working in North Carolina! (and I did LIU, just didn't click on the web page). I asked because xara is a Brazilian Portuguese word of address to someone who has the same name as one doing the addressing (which is pretty common in a country full of Josés and Marias).
Whence comes your name, xara? (or can I LIU on your web page )
