Vote metal when naming space station[views:1849][posts:15]_________________________________________ [Feb 21,2009 9:16am - Conservationist ""] ATTENTION METALHEADS WORLDWIDE The American space agency is naming a new piece of its space station, called a node. They are letting Internet users vote on what that name should be. Most people are ignoring it. Metalheads are not. If we act together, we can make them name it after something close to the surly heart of every metalhead... SLAYER. Go here to vote: http://www.nasa.gov/externalflash/name_ISS/index.html Select the last option, "Suggest Your Own:" and type SLAYER in the box below it, then click Vote. All of us voting for SLAYER shows that there's a metalhead culture that cannot be ignored -- and possibly, could get a piece of space history named after that groundbreaking metal band.

| _____________________________________________ [Feb 21,2009 9:41am - AnotherMetalDrummer ""] I am defentially voting for this! |
| __________________________________ [Feb 21,2009 12:34pm - darkwor ""] i checked the results and it looks like it's going to be named "Serenity" (might have a lot to do with the excellent sci-fi movie) but..i did vote for slayer. |
| ____________________________________________ [Feb 21,2009 12:36pm - FuckIsMySignature ""] slayer in space lolzz |
| ______________________________________________________ [Feb 21,2009 1:01pm - boblovesmusicatthefilmplace ""] Gotta say that I was torn between slayer and serenity. Having it called Serenity would be a nice touch, though having it called Slayer would be kinda awesome. Since Serenity seems to be winning anyways, I voted Slayer. |
| _____________________________________________ [Feb 21,2009 1:26pm - AnotherMetalDrummer ""] No matter what happens, Slayer will not be the winner. I am pretty sure that the U.S. Goverment wont let a trilion dollar space station be called "Slayer". I hope it does tho |

| ______________________________ [Feb 21,2009 1:31pm - Lamp ""] Seriously though, if I knew it was an Internet contest, I wouldn't try to rally people around anything musical, I'd go for something like "Tubgirl" or "Goatse" or something else along those lines. |
| ______________________________________ [Feb 21,2009 1:42pm - SkinSandwich ""] They should name it the best band name on Earf! That of course being PANZERBASTARD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |

Unity, Harmony, Slayer. It has a nice flow to it. |

| _____________________________________ [Feb 22,2009 5:25pm - Bob Barker ""] Serenity would be cool but Slayer would be amazing. Like someone said, don't matter what the internet says no way they name a gazillion dollar space station node 'Slayer' |
| ______________________________________ [Feb 22,2009 6:56pm - the_reverend ""] it should be called comrade commie and the pink sick-el |
| ______________________________________ [Feb 22,2009 9:39pm - Phrozenspite ""] even better we should call it what it truly is... Electric Eye after the Judas Priest song haha |
| ______________________________ [Feb 23,2009 7:43am - Yeti ""] i'm with Lamp. Unity, Harmony, and Goatse flows so much better than Slayer. |
