Rumors of My Passing...

...have been greatly exaggerated - I now have an entry at the Political Graveyard!

Plus, for reasons that elude me, my name was sent to a comet:

As a public outreach effort, over 1 million names were collected and placed on the STARDUST spacecraft,which will visit Comet Wild 2 in 2004.

Funny, I don't remember this cometary outreach effort (really reaching way out). I wonder if it was me or someone else with my name?
