Can Fame Be Measured Quantitatively?

We propose... ...the standard unit of fame be called the Lewinsky (Lw), where 1 Lewinsky is the number of web pages that mention Monica Lewinsky. In this system, Earle Spamer has a fame of 840 microLewinskys, while Jesus Christ has a fame of 7.6 Lewinskys.

You might also be interested in my second article on fame (http://members.verizon.net/~vze3fs8i/air/fame2.html). And my third article on fame will be appearing in the Annals of Improbable Research soon. You'll be able to access it from my science humor page (http://members.verizon.net/~vze3fs8i/air/) once it is published.

I like The History of the Universe in 200 Words or Less and the Operational Assessment of the E-11 Blaster Rifle.

I have always thought the failure of Imperial Stormtroopers to successfully fire a blaster and hit a barn waddling away slowly was to do with having been cloned badly from Jango Fett. A blind spot no doubt enhanced by the traditional helmets.
