BEHOLD THE POWER OF STEVE!
From this week's "What's New" (http://www.aps.org/WN/index.html)
3. PROJECT STEVE: THE EVOLUTIONARY ADVANTAGE OF BEING "STEVE."
In 2001, the Discovery Institute published ads listing names
of 100 "scientists" who doubted Darwinism. The National
Center for Science Education parodied the ads by collecting
signatures just of scientists named "Steve" on a statement
endorsing evolution. "Steve" was chosen to honor the late
Stephen J. Gould, a renowned evolutionary biologist. The 440
"Steves" are co-authors of a paper in the Annals of Improbable
Research, and can note on their resumes that they co-authored
a paper with Stephen Hawking and Nobel laureates Steve
Weinberg and Steve Chu.

BWAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
