Oh, and they are both named Marjorie/Marjory. I don't know if that's important, but take it for what it's worth.
Just for reference:
Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marjorie_Kinnan_RawlingsMarjorie Kinnan Rawlings. 55 years dead. Author of
The Yearling. Literary mother of those depressing ass stories where the pet dies at the end (oh, sorry, spoiler alert. The pet dies at the end). Presumably skilled in cracker style cooking, whatever that involves. Was portrayed in the movie
Cross Creek by Mary Steenburgen, but Steenburgen's husband Ted Danson was inexplicably left out in favor of Peter Coyote. What's up with that?
Marjory Stoneman Douglas
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marjory_Stoneman_DouglasMarjory Stoneman Douglas. 11 years dead. Had the crazy idea of living for 108 years. Advocated for preserving the Florida Everglades, a unique, ultra-diverse ecosystem unparalleled on this earth. (Yeah!) However, in doing so, she also inadvertently advocated for preserving millions of mosquitos living in the Florida Everglades, a unique, ultra-diverse ecosystem unparalleled on this earth. (Boo!)
As you can clearly see from the picture, both women liked chairs. It is unknown whether or not Rawlings, like Douglas, liked cats. However, I would say if we are going on the issue of bodily decay alone, Douglas has a certain advantage. It's a tough call, though, so I ask that the DU Lounge make the final decision.
