Ave, Jeff!

Jeff Hodges has lately been engaged in a lengthy act of citing citations—metacitation, if you will—in which he posts about the fact that other researchers have cited his work in their works. It must be nice to know you're being cited by other academics.

Alas for Dr. Hodges, his real first name is Horace, which he dislikes, and people keep misspelling "Jeffery" as "Jeffrey."

See here.

And here.

And here.

And here.

And here.

And here.

And just today: here.

A compromise would be to drop the second "e" -- Jeffry. Voila!

Or add another "e" - "Jefferey"!

It's like the text version of a lasagna: alternating layers of cheese, pasta, and meat sauce.
