>>To me it's just a sort of craving for recognition by Ray, renaming almost every python species. At least his name pops up in the synonymy list of the specimens.

The nearest equivalent I can think of is a teenage graffiti vandal, who spray-paints some garbage onto a wall, and gets his kick out of watching others scrubbing it away - "look, I can make other people pay this much attention to what I have done".

Pretty sad for someone in his 40s, really.

Cheers,

Wolfgang
