Check it out! Surfing wikipedia today (looked up “persimmon” to remember the name of the ooky variety, then cruised over to “clementine” just because I like to, and clicked on disambiguation) I find:
Clementine, a large mechanical claw built to secretly raise a sunken Soviet submarine K-129 during the Cold War as part of Project Jennifer.
Well the metaphor is definitely off, but who knew our names were linked before!
