This is for any out there who watch the Big Bang Theory show. Two items.
1) in some upcoming episode there should be one or two global maps of
Mercury showing up on one of the walls of the set (living room,
perhaps?),
courtesy of MESSENGER. Be on the lookout for them (I have no idea when
they
will appear, the prints are being made now and shipped to the studio)
2) if you suddenly catch the phrase 'geek bling' being batted about,
apparently *I* was (unknowingly) the inspiration for this. Last year one
of
the guys here indicated to the mission pins on my ID lanyard and called
them geek bling. (you can see a photo of it here:

And
apparently recently the producers of the show were speaking with our
mission ops manager about the goings on behind the scenes here. he
indicated this phrase being used by the mission (still mostly in
reference
to me).
Just a note.
