Follow-Up: Fact...Francis Bacon

We here at AoF don't hide our love for all things internets, especially the Wikipedia. Wikipedia, like all other incredibly powerful tools of information, is often used for good. Unfortunately, it can also be used for evil. My personal use for it is killing time, as well as using it as the sole source of information for pretty much all of my scholastic pursuits. It's gotten to the point where I will only incorporate into my assignments those concepts that have their own Wikipedia page. We're talking the full range of things here. I only cite to cases that have their own Wikipedia page, which is not an easy thing to pull off. The only exception to that rule is if I can find an article that already summarized the case for me, thereby eliminating my workload completely.

(Which brings me to my next point...Dont' Smoke Crack)

This brings me to the original point of this post. It's the answer you've all been waiting days for. I found out what Sir Francis Bacon was famous for. Actually, to be precise, I didn't find what Francis Bacon was famous for. Walt "Clyde" Frazier discovered it.

Francis Bacon has been known throughout history for his "Swishin' and Dishin'", "Slicin' and Dicin'", "Musclin' and Hustlin'", and his "Fire and Desire". Though of a "diminutive" size, he was off to a "prodigious start" when he invented the Scientific Method. The rest of the scientific community could "ill-afford" to underestimate him as he slashed through the emprical data in a "dauntless" fashion. In sum, his "omnipotence" was "omnipresent". (All quotes taken from Knicks game broadcasts, it is uncertain why Walt "Clyde" spoke of Sir Francis Bacon so often).

He's a Bacon, they're all a bunch of mud farmers and sheep rapists anyway.
