Wick On Wick

In the mail comes a copy of an email to Jim Schutze at the Observer from one Wick Olson:

Hey Jim,  
 Do you know Wick Allison manages to publish D Magazine without displaying children in their adult services section? Why can’t you?

Good question (except that D Magazine doesn’t publish an “adult section” and never will). But let’s move on to a less important point. How did Wick get that funny name? I mean, Olson? What’s that?
