....It works for me, and probably everyone else with a clue. However,
astronomical bodies are currently named by a bunch of transvestite and
transsexual Frogs who, to this day, refuse to acknowledge "Mount
Marilyn" or any of the other names deservedly assigned to locations on
the Moon by those who discovered and/or visited there. As soon as the
IAU is disbanded and its members executed, the sooner we'll see more
fun and apropos names applied to stellar bodies.
