ScienceBlogs Book Club: Inside the Outbreaks

The Corpus Callosum

The Corpus Callosum is an occasional journal of armchair musings, by a suburban, reality-based, slightly-left-of-center guy, who reserves the right to be highly irregular at times. Topics: social commentary, neuroscience, politics, science news. Mission: to develop connections between hard science and social science, using linear thinking and intuition; and to explore the relative merits of spontaneity vs. strategy.

How many?

3
people with my name
in the U.S.A.

How many have your name?

I knew there was at least one other.  I used to get threatening letters and phone calls from bill collectors, because he had gotten divorced, gotten stuck with his ex-wife's Sears bill (about $750) and did not pay it.  

It showed up on my credit report for years.  I wrote several letters trying to get it removed, but they never would.  

It is gone now.  That's the way these things work.

There is a database of the frequency of names from the US census that I think they're using here. I appears to take frequency of first name and frequency of last name and then calculate the probable intersection.

Of course that's obviously flawed. Try entering "Juan Murphy" - 560.
