Hey, Dag found Seya's name in Japanese, which is pretty cool since it doesn't really seem like anyone knows this.

Here's the slide deck from a presentation he gave last year: http://www.slideshare.net/seya128/20120204. Some biographical info:

• 42 years old when the presentation was given. It's dated 2011-12-09, so birth year is probably 1969 but it could be 1968.
• Father of twin boys in high school. :3
