I've always wanted to come up with a unit of measurement so my name will be forever preserved in the annals of science, since they sometimes name the actual unit after the person who came up with it. Unfortunately, the only unit I've been able to measure is a quantitative figure of how much something sucks. It's not that I don't think the Council of Weights and Measurements won't accept it, it's that I don't think I'd want that forever associated with my name.
