Space invaders

For those of you who are not fans of Stephen Colbert (and if not, why not?), you may not have heard of his crusade to get the NASA space station module currently called "Node 3" to be renamed Colbert. NASA held a contest to allow the public to name the node and allowed write-in votes. On his nightly Comedy Central program, Mr. Colbert exhorted his audience to write-in "Colbert."
It worked. He won with a margin of 40,000 votes. Now we just wait to see if NASA allows the comedian to invade space.
