Interesting...
An interesting article in Edge where a large number of intellectual luminaries of various sorts - scientists, businessmen, literary people, and so on - were asked to think of interesting universal laws that they've observed in the course of their endeavours, and then naming those laws after the people. Some of them are good, some not so good, but by and large it's a pretty interesting article.

(From what I've read so far - about a third of it, it's long - Pollack's First Law is the one that's caught my eye the most, although there has certainly been competition. And Smolin's Third is the one I most disagree with, but on that one it's clearly necessary to wait for the experimental and theoretical results to be in before making any conclusions)
