Surrealist comedian Spike Milligan wrote a nonsense poem called On the Ning Nang Nong which was acclaimed one of the most-loved British poems of the twentieth century. I wonder if there is a distant association here to Nong's naming and subsequent fate? --AgProv 12:47, 31 December 2007 (CET)

Still #22 on the top 500 at poemfinder.com, but beaten by Shel Silverstein and Roald Dahl, among others. (Milton, thou shouldst be livid at this hour.) --Old Dickens 16:13, 31 December 2007 (CET)

Oh what a noisy place to belong/Is the Ning Nang Ning Nang Nong
