153. Yes, it was named for William of Ockham,
but in most texts (at least in the states) it is referred to as Occam's (why, I don't know, but I rarely see it spelled Ockham).

I don't really care, but just brought it up because I though if the poster is going to dis someone with philisophical arguments, he might as well at least spell it correctly. :)
