Hey, this looks familiar. Thanks for modeling the solferino saurian.

I suppose this would be a good place to explain my name. Well, my parents named me Joe...

My alter-ego moniker, however came from the Hitch Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy. I listened to the radio show on NPR as a kid, and the style of humor was mind-opening. (It was on in a hour block with the radio-serial of Star Wars.)

The infrapink lizard shows up only once - a throwaway gag of a logo on Disaster Area's limo. Somehow the concept of infra-pinkness tickled my humor and a few years later it popped up again from my unconscious.

The extra z came from a dear friend from school who was a terrible speller. When she died in an accident a few years later, the second z became official.

Found to be solvable with moderate lookahead by infrapinklizzard.
