Actually Janis, our moon has had several names, especially if we use the process used for some other moons, such as Io, a moon of Jupiter and named after a Priestess of Hera.
The Inuit called the moon Alignak
The Greeks used Artemis (along with Selene and Hectate)
There is a fabulous concert location in Gilford, NH which was named âMeadowbrookâ for years. Now itâs the Bank of NH pavilion with a propane company as the second name. While it didnât slow attendance and hosts a great many country music stars all season, itâs just not the same.
Heinlein wrote âThe Man Who Sold the Moonâ. When it became technically possible to carbon black huge letters onto the Moon, an entrepeneur sold the right to âSomething Colaâ, even though their name would not be legible. He got the deal by offering to sell the rights to â8-Upâ which would be clearly visible. Something Cola was willing to pay so they could run a âkeep the Moon pristineâ advertising campaign.
Thereâs going to be a time (and Iâm talking about thousands of years) when the moon will look like a lighted billboard to the people of Earth, so enjoy it now in its virgin state.
Iâm fed up with all the arenas and stadiums with temporary corporate names. Except in a discussion like this, I never use âSAP Center.â It will always be âThe Shark Tank.â
Am I the only one who sees her looking out of the panel (breaking the 4th wall)? Sheâs worried that someone reading the cartoon will take one of the actions theyâre discussing!
