Wanna Live Forever? Become A Noun! [Video]

In the search for immortality, humans have built great monuments of stone, had songs sung about their great deeds, and been frozen. However, there may be an easier path. NPR’s Robert Krulwich (who comprises one half of the amazing Radiolab program that you really should be listening to) and Adam Cole posit that the fastest way to immortality is simply to have your name become a noun. However, it’s not without drawbacks. Sit back, relax, and enjoy toe-tapping etymological madness.
