Haha, I saw that, it's awesome!

Although I'm generally against the idea of going numbers ->names, I think this one would be worthwhile. :)

I mixed Douglas Adams with Samuel Adams and laughed. Then I realized it's only half as cool.

I also Slinky's teacher, John Adams, with John Quincy Adams. "..John Adams.. wasn't he a famous pirate or something? Or a president?.."

It's about time that people started naming streets after things other than Presidents. Especially so that, in fuck's name, Bush doesn't get immortalized on some street I somehow end up on. Or any recent President, for that matter. I'd take famous author names over them any day. ;)
