When I started working on Acme, I had a pretty strong idea about what
it would be and what it would look like, but I didn't have a name yet.
As I usually did at the time, on Friday night I went to Times Square
for Movie Night. +Penn Jillette was there, and I told him I needed a
name for my new project.
"What does it do?" he asked.
"Umm... Everything." I said.
"Acme," said Penn, and laughed.
