A Random Wednesday Conversation Starter

What would you rather have named after you: a military maneuver ("The Picard Maneuver"), or a breakthrough medical procedure ("Tommy John surgery")?

(I'll assume nobody wants to have a disease named for them.)

"The Whidden Maneuver" is already fairly well known (in the face of battle-wet pants, drop gun, run the other way), so I'll go with the medical procedure, as long as it is a form of "natural male enhancement."

Roger, over and out!

(True: 1945 was the year the name Roger was most popular.)

I'm thinking a sandwich named after me would be good.

Medical procedure, but only if it's something that is not embarrassing or gross. Any operation involving the lower intestine is out.

My biggest hope is that a fossil or living creature will be named for me some day. :-)
