Okay, okay. I entered:
Eyes to the skies for the free form one

and

The Mighty for the prefix.

Fun! When do we find out what they choose?

EDIT: I'm always in such a hurry, never fully read anything...Jan 2012!

LOL Spamming nerds with fun titles. My first entry:

1) The Array Which Is Quite Large, Indeed, Bigger Than Many.

2) The Tremendously, Incredibly, Stupendously, Ostentatiously, Very Large Array.

Entry #2:

1) The Titanic (But UnLikely To Sink); or, TiBULTS

2) Wow! It's a Very Large Array

:D

Oh, the fun is endless!

Went with Eavesdropper for the serious version.
Not as Large As We Wanted But the Best We Could Do with the Space/Time and Money.

Hmmm, can it be that Finance is one of the Universe's constants?

Love the pun in Overhear. Well done, Rich!
