[Scan-DC] Slightly OT: Suggest a new name for the Very Large Array radio telescope

[Blair Thompson]

Since it appears in the advertising for many of those gadgets so beloved by all the hipsters, my suggestion is to call the thing the Hip Hip Array.

This is slightly off-topic, but the National Radio Astronomy
Observatory, a facility of my agency (the National Science Foundation),
is looking for a new name for the Very Large Array radio telescope near
Socorro, New Mexico. The VLA was made famous by Jodie Foster in Contact, and you may not realize it, but you probably see pictures of it almost every day in advertisements (it has become an icon for high tech and communications).
