The deadline for submitted entries has passed. Overlord Miller and I will decide on a winner in the next day or so and make an official announcement by the end of the week.

Charles (as in Babbage) and Ada.
William and Bruce (Gibson/Sterling).
Mel and Carl (Brooks/Reiner, of “The 2000-Year-Old Man”).
Tee and Pip.
Igor and Scarface (Because I enjoy Mr. Coulton too).
Napoleon and Illya.
Ralph and Sam (after the Looney Toons timeclock-punching sheepdog & coyote).
Bugs and Daffy (because hey, I mean, what the heck. And Daffy _is_ the deity of frustration, according to one source).
Kirk and Khan.
Laurel and Hardy.
Abbott and Costello. (Have to admit, I really like this pair.)
Londo and G’Kar. (Alternately, Sinclair and Sheridan. Each was “The One.”)

@JJ — I'm almost positive that your entries were received and are now housed safely in our off-site archive, to be examined when Overlord Miller and I review and pass judgment on them. Alas, as is the nature of off-site archives, I am unable to check at the moment.

Deadline is tonight. Kris, did you get my email with other possible names? If not I’ll post them here if needs be.
