    heikki westerinen is the most finish name i have heard. i was kind of sad that noone guessed his country

      I would have been quite surprised. It's not common for Americans to know more than a handful of European countries by name. btw Ben's pronounciation wasn't bad on the second try. I think to nail words like "Heikki", as a non-Finnish speaker, you have to pay close attention to that double consonant length.
