   I wonder why they named that kid that? No high expectations for him?

   Montezuma probably didn't like to clean up after babies.

   Cuitlahuac, it sounds like over the counter medication.

   Cuitlahuac.. for that not so fresh feeling.

   That's funny... I think there's a type of Mexican food called "Cuitlacoche," which I've heard translated to mean, "Corn Smut."

   @ Ris: It does! the blasted thing is basically corn fungus which sounds pretty disgusting but isn't that bad when cooked properly.

   Poor Cuitlahuac

    You are wrong. His real name is Cuautlahuac "who cares". And e became emperor after the death of moctecuhzoma.
    There was a town called Cuitlahuac, but "plenty of poo" or “dry excrement” are only a meaning, out of context. Another meaning based on the ground of the town is
    "new vegetation," "gold water or "lake vegetation landscape".

    But... what can say a fckng american without hisory. The real USA meaning is death, hunger, terror. You are the worst empire in history. All world hate you because steal everything you can...
