Top #101799 - 04/28/03 12:12 PM Re: St. Bucky Faldage Carpal Tunnel Registered: 12/01/00 Posts: 13653 something IS happening So often you hear that X is going to be the technological revolution of the millennium, the greatest thing since sliced quasars, and then … nothing. BTW, wasn't it Buckminster Fuller that said "I think I'm a verb"? Bucky the cat was named after Buck O'Neil, the Negro League player.

I know that I am not a category. I am not a thing -- a noun. I seem to be a verb, an evolutionary process -- an integral function of the universe." -- R. Buckminster Fuller Edit: I think he was fond of this image(?) since on another occasion he said: "God, to me, it seems, is a verb, not a noun, proper or improper."
