A variation or typo on Hrunting was my guess. See:

A classical education/interest doesn't hurt either ;) I bet you knew the names and googled for the reference to save typing just like me
 
Not your fault, Andrew, but I hate web-pages that do that. "What?", you ask - every time I un-minimized the page or switched back from another tab (in Opera) it reloaded the page. Makes it impossible to multi-task. :mad:

EditOh, and I would have to google all the references to have any idea what they were talking about - but I could if I wanted to, because it's the Internet!
