TIL that the owner of the "DJANGO" license plate that I've occasionally seen driving around north Chicago for at least the last TEN years is actually owned by the guitar player in the big band that I joined this fall. He does not do anything with software. I just figured this out as we were leaving a gig and he was parked next to me. "Wait, you're the DJANGO guy!?!"
