Well, that didn't stop humans from putting our own names on the galaxies and planets and suns. What I'm saying is it doesn't matter if someone else discovered it first. They will have their own name for it.
Names are from our perspective and for our benefit.

Hmm.......good point. However how does humanity think that everything that we see is ours? Just because we live her don't mean that we can do what we want with it because IF we are not the only ones here then it could be offensive that we tok it in as ours.

Hahaha! "Bob" was meant to be sarcastic. But the original post of this board reminds me of Titan AE when the main character named New Earth "Bob".

Also, "Sierra-Hotel-India-Tango-One" was sarcastic. I was hoping someone got it. Oh well.

But if any of these two sarcastic suggestions are selected, then at least I can sleep well. Life shouldn't be taken too seriously.



nice usage of verbal encryption i dont even know all the words in the code but i know how to read all of them

Ya, sometimes I get confused using correct verbal code words. That's when I look it up on Wiki to correct myself.

I thought it was funny during the movie, Hot Shots, they substituted the code words with funnier versions, like "Underwear" instead of "Uniform". Plus, there is one line I love from Hot Shots the movie: "What I would give to be twenty years younger... and a woman!"

Military-based movies, video games, literature, etc. would help you recognize these verbal code words:

NATO Phonetic Alphabet
