Along that line, I recently learned that the "Van Allen radiation belts" are called that everywhere except in Iowa City, where they use the nomenclature: "radiation belts" :-) James Van Allen was a Professor at the University of Iowa. I also noticed that he was Time Magazine's Man of the Year in 1960.

Then again, we all have our quirks. I did end up being mentioned in his book thought, I almost fell of the chair at Dulles airport as I read it. That book covers things such as the field you mention, and much more. If you only read selected parts, it's fine. There is other parts I do not agree with. He is not the only one in the field that has some hobby theories that maybe is best kept to the sideline.

He keep insisting at referring to the ADEV as 2-sample deviation except in introductory coarses.

If I had thought about it, I would have assumed David made fellow decades ago. He was already a legend around the HP Precision Frequency section when I started at HP 40 years ago. Maybe he was just too modest and didn't do enough self promotion. Anyway, I'm happy that the powers that be finally corrected this situation.
