a weblog of wordplay by Eric Harshbarger
Heterogrammic Names
Years ago I met someone with the last name of "Lubozynski" and immediately noticed that that was a 10-letter surname in which no letters were repeated... pretty rare.A huge scandal erupted in Illini politics this week when the governor of that state was arrested for trying to "sell" a seat in the Senate. Controversy aside, his surname ups the ante for the wordplay note above.
His last name is "Blagojevich"; eleven letters long.

I don't know much about Senate politics, but I am an admirer of your work with Lego. I'll check back from time to time and see what you are up to in that regard! Best wishes. -Ben

Really? Maybe since my name is 10 letters long with no repeated letters, this doesn't seem that impressive to me...
