Dear Rogers:

I will keep my eyes open for other unusual sightings and things that would lend themselves to being named after you... Like a sea slug, a kind of influenza, or -- are you ready -- a poem of decreasing stanzas, where the last one must always be a three-letter word.

It would be nown as the "Rogers Poetic Corkscrew."

Fondest regards,
Jack "r" (Toad)

Oh George, let's
Oh George
