TIL The Names of Linus' Servers

TIL that the names of Linus' servers are based on communities and features around Langley, British Columbia.

 
Fraser is named after the Fraser River that runs through the Lower Mainland of BC.

 

Whonnock and Ruskin are small communities just east of Langley and north of the aforementioned river.

 

Newton is named after the Newton region of the city of Surrey (at least I think so).

 

Am I missing any?

Newton....

 

Did he do what i think he did? 

 

 

I wonder why he named it newton...

Pfft obviously because of the historical landmark known as the Wave Pool.

Maybe the Newton NCIX? Or the Newton Transit exchange.

 

Maybe it's the worst server of the bunch? *shots fired* >__>

Might be because a mac fell on top of it?
