Jennifer 8. Lee, a former reporter for The Times... That was not a typo. This person's middle name is the number 8: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jennifer_8._Lee http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jennifer_8._Lee Lee was not given a middle name at birth, but instead chose "8." as a teenager. For many Chinese people, the number eight symbolizes prosperity and good luck. I found that to be a fascinating little tidbit.
