There is an optical phenomenon of purple and green stripes of light seen in the sky of near-polar regions which some wag named “Steve”. It was COMPLETELY arbitrary. However, as the phenomenon was recognized as sourced from a ribbon of hot plasma and became mainstream science, it became necessary for “Steve” to mean something. So it became STEVE (Strong Thermal Emission Velocity Enhancement).
Bucky is forgetting about one thing…. Correlation does not equal causality. Just being named Steve does not make you a genius. The Steves who are geniuses would still have become geniuses even if their parents had given them a different name. :P

I once worked for a guy named Steve. He was the best boss I ever had. He’d put me in charge and leave for the rest of the day.

Well, Steve Wozniak & Steve Jobs were “pretty clever”for two guys named “Steve”.
nobody calls him “Steve”, but Stephen Hawking is also of above average intelligence.
Stephen King has written a lot of books that a lot of people have read . . .

Suspect that there are more geniuses (geneii?) named Steve than there are Bucky.

Even Bucky couldn’t make that up.

There once was a genius named Steve
Whose IQ was hard to believe.
When asked why this was so,
He replied, "I don’t know,
But I do know that E=mc²."
He was bright, but really lousy at poetry.

What I would like to know is how one may acquire a copy of the “Big Book of Steves”.
