Yes. Whenever we go to the zoo my son (who will be five in a bit over a month) leans over the fence and yells, "Gerald! Gerald!" He's just waiting for passersby to ask him, and he replies, "Yes, the elephant's Gerald. My Daddy told me!"

Kudos, Anna! Still quick on the draw, I see.
Ted, wonderful to have you back!
