Never knew there was a comet named after yours truly until news of this event hit the wires today. Learning that my current last name was hijacked by a family relative back in the 1940s in order to Americanize themselves doesn't detract from the coolness of this occurrence, and perhaps the line in the article that I enjoy most is the characterization of this comet as a "long-forgotten dirtball." Indeed, I can certainly relate.
Hat tip to the JOG for starting my day off with the link.
