Pieter, a technical translator. Precise, literal, well meaning, and genuinely unable to let an inaccuracy pass. His English is better than most native speakers', which he occasionally mentions. Lives in Rotterdam, Netherlands. The board's pedant.
The currency changeover is functioning remarkably well, with dual circulation operating exactly as specified to absorb routine retail friction.
