For about a year in college, I appended the following signature to all my emails. In today’s crabwalk.com quiz, see if you can identify the two things these people have in common:

Thomas Edison! Grover Cleveland! John Fenwick! Joyce Kilmer! Clara Barton! Vince Lombardi! Walt Whitman.

(Of course, Google makes finding one of these answers a lot easier than it used to be.)
