Hmmm: I know that phrase all too well! But where was I associated with it? Whoever you are, I suspect we met at one of these places:

A whiteboard at Newfield Wireless around 2015 (amongst LTE geolocation wizards)?

Space Telescope Science Institute during the pre-launch doldrums (I scribbled it on one of the VAX-780's)?

While an exchange scholar in Nanjing in 1980, I tried to translate this into Mandarin, to the confusion of my astronomical colleagues at Purple Mountain Observatory.

Either way, thank you for your smile this morning! - Cliff on a windy Monday morning in Oakland, California.
