We tried it with Tricky Dicky here in California with Route 90. For a 
while it was called "Richard Nixon Fwy" but then they changed it 
to "Marina Fwy".  I saw a copy of the legislation that did this.  There 
wasn't any explanation why.  They probably didn't say anything because 
they were afraid he was secretly taping them in the hearing room!

And now that Goldwater's gone, I wouldn't be surprised if Arizona's named 
something after him already.
