LANGERHANS:

As in The Far-flung Islets of Langerhans: The Rocket Man writes: Well, the Islets of Langerhans aren't on any map. In 1869, Paul Langerhans, a German pathologist, described cells in the human pancreas which secrete insulin. These cells became know as the 'Islets of Langerhans'. Diabetes is a disorder where the Islets of Langerhans do not properly supply the body with insulin. Made mention in "How Can You Be In Two Places At Once..."

LOMPOC:

Another town in Southern California. Also used by W.C.Fields: Cat writes: The reason Fields used Lompoc, aside from the fact that it was fun to pronounce, was that it was the capitol of the temperence movement in the US, and you know W.C. Field's tolerance for temperence; at least that was the surmise of David Ossman when he visited Lompoc in 1970, and reported back to the other Crazee Guys on their radio show at the time. Dave said it was actually pronounced lom-poke, but he may have been high on pork at the time.
