It's nice to see that someone appreciates a geeky sense of humor.
Logarithmic scaling usually involves normalization to some reference or standard level; e.g., decibels. I figured that Andy Baker would be a pretty good reference for reputation in our community, hence "deciBakers".

I believe in intuition and inspiration. Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited, whereas imagination embraces the entire world, stimulating progress, giving birth to evolution. It is, strictly speaking, a real factor in scientific research.
