  vonKrolock: <offramp: Leitao means 'little pig'.> Sorry, Morgan, but we would better translating this word as 'young pig' - a litte would be 'porquinho', average 'porco' and a big one 'porcão'. Leitão is a current surname in Brasil, with many glorious representatives in various States and ages
Jun-24-06   florencioq: Leitão means "Piglet"
Jul-22-06   arbivara: I wonder why there's no bio info for Leitão here. He was twice world champion (once U12 and once U18).

Nov-24-08   shortsight: I wonder why Rafael and Vescovi did not represent Brazil in the Olympiad. Brazil fared badly without them anchoring the team.
