Name New Island to "DooDooFart"


Name New Island to "DooDooFart"
The Issue
YES! We are aware this won't happen for probably hundreds of years but why not start now!!
In our ongoing research into the exciting world of volcanos and tectonic shifts, my colleagues and I have developed a peculiar yet endearing habit. We have taken to affectionately labeling the Pacific Coast volcano known as "Axial Seamount" as "DooDooFart." It started as a lighthearted nickname, a way to add a touch of humor while navigating the complex geological data. The name has stuck, and we've found it brings a smile amidst the often serious discourse of volcanic activity analysis.
Now, this very volcano, Axial Seamount, holds the (possible) potential to do something truly extraordinary—it could create a brand-new island! Wellll in probably hundreds of years...but why not start now! This brings us to a unique opportunity. When this natural marvel arises from the depths, there's a chance to have a bit of fun with its christening. Naming it "DooDooFart Island" would not only immortalize our quirky label but also embrace a spirit of joy and lightheartedness.
Naming geographical features, especially those birthed from the earth's fiery core, usually follows strict conventions, often in honor of scientists or historical figures. This time, however, we propose breaking tradition in favor of something as unique as the volcanic act itself. "DooDooFart Island" could remind us that nature, while awe-inspiring and sometimes terrifying, can also be a source of amusement.
If the Axial Seamount does indeed lead to the creation of a new island, giving it a name that reflects the humor and curiosity that geology inspires in all of us would be a delightful departure from the norm. To support this unconventional yet light-hearted campaign, and to add a bit of joy to future maps and discussions, sign this petition to make "DooDooFart Island" a reality.
No! We are not scientists but in a place full of depression and magical landscapes laughing is a happy necessary for people in the Pacific Northwest :D
