I don't know about anyone else, but I find these cutesy names off-putting. "Genesis Rock" sounds a lot better than "Sushi and Sashimi".

Ditto. These people are so close to their work and way of life that it's a fetish. Perhaps understandable in light of the level of dedication required to make this stuff work. But wierd. To several generations, "outer space" and other planets were places of magic and excitement. But I think really they are, while possibly interesting, really just "places" -- where there is no life of any kind.
