Another Call For Votes!

Ok, guys, this is important! Go vote to name NASA's Node 3 again! You can vote once a day!

Steven Colbert is leading by using the write-in option!

From the Yahoo front page: The count by mid-Tuesday had votes for the comedian just shy of 115,000 and Serenity trailing at 98,641. More than 451,000 people have voted.  NOT OK!  Go vote, folks!

(Note that this one can be a bit slow, too, but it will go through eventually.)

Comments That Make Me Proud

From the Whedonesque thread on the Geek Affairs race:

zeitgeist : Joss is a geek icon and a story/literary/film/musical theatre, Wil is a dyed-in-the-wool geek in more traditional senses.

Hunted : Is Joss a geek? I've never thought that. Hm...However Wil clearly IS, he built his own website. He used to (may still be doing for all i know) write his own html in notepad to update the site. He does weird and wonderful things with computers that I doubt Joss could (and he's on twitter!) - so I think Wil clearly is the bigger geek.

madmolly : When I think of geek, I think of Wil. When I think of Master, I think of Joss.

spooforbrains : Don't mean to be nitpicky, but the tag is incorrect. Wil only has one "l". And while Joss is my master, Wil is far and away the more geeky. And he understands issues that are important to his fellow geeks, like why DRM is very very bad. That sort of thing is not even on Joss's radar. So I know who my vote goes with.

Oh, spooforbrains...I think I love you.  After all, everyone knows Brent Spiner took the other "l".
