The Sixties

I'll tell you a name-droppy story. I was at an ELO concert and someone came up to me and said: "I loved your documentary. I've got a question about Saturn's moon Enceladus and its ice fountains. I'm really sorry, I'm always doing this - I walk up to people who I've seen on telly and I think I met them, but I haven't met you before. Sorry! I'm Paul McCartney." That was the first time I met Paul McCartney. I've met him a few times since. He's always wonderful. But the first time I met him, because I'm such a big Beatles fan, I was completely overwhelmed. I loved that he introduced himself to me.

@i-am-the-oyster - Nancy does seem to have taken his last name (though possibly she stuck with "Shevell", at least publicly, until she stopped working)! She uses it in her dad's obituary, and then there's this at Memorial Sloan Kettering, where she and Linda were both treated during their breast cancer battles:

if you google "what is it called when" and the first letter of a beatle, autocomplete writes you a little poem about their apocalyptic destiny.
