    My high school sociology teacher said that Max Weber invented the Weber grill. Most of us believed it.

    This is from wikipedia:

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Max_Weber

    "Weber formulated a three-component theory of stratification, with Social class, Social status and party (or politicals) as conceptually distinct elements.[53]

    * Social class is based on economically determined relationship to the market (owner, renter, employee etc.).
    * Status is based on non-economical qualities like honour, prestige and religion.
    * Party refers to affiliations in the political domain.

    All three dimensions have consequences for what Weber called "life chances".[53]"
