I have wondered about it. By the way, I co-wrote a little movie that should be released some time this year, it was a loose adaptation of a Lovecraft story, and we peppered the script with many references to Lovecraft and his comtemporaries and every "thing from space" movie we could come up with. One character was named Ambrose, and another character was named Wellman after Manly Wade Wellman. And we had another character named after August Derleth too!
