Dig it. Nominated. The type-in for the Modernist architect who designed much of Brasilia is very generous. Just goofing around until time expired (because I was at a complete and shameful loss), I typed the name of a famous soccer player (misspelling it in the process) and cracked up when the quiz accepted it.
