"WILSON" - In Count Zero, a Wilson is a slang term for a screw-up.

"A wilson. A fuck-up. It's hotdogger talk, I guess."
Did it again. Shit.
The Finn gave him a very strange look. "Jesus. That's your word for it, huh? Christ, I know the guy."
"Who?"
"Bodine Wilson," he said. "First guy I ever knew wound up as a figure of speech."
"Was he stupid?" Bobby asked, immediately regretting it.
"Stupid? Shit, no, he was smart as hell."

Is JUNIOR enacting the grandfather paradox by garrotting ALOYSIUS?
Maybe not, if ALOYSIUS’ son (ROBERT, the 2016 US president) is already conceived in 1946, he would only have to be 70 years old in 2016.
