Who's Muhammad Ali?

Woodcarver just for you:
Cassius Clay is Muhammad Ali.

(sarcasm to Woodcarver )
(Referring to Abbott & Constello, Who's on First)

(Courteously to others)

I am trying to play nice.

Some of our younger and/or non USA AH members may not know who the guy is in Willbaforce's thread. Hence JimP's thread. Hence my follow-up thread.
