In an effort to humanize our cetacean friends, Greenpeace is currently conducting an online poll of 30 possible names for the humpback whales travelling on the "Great Whale Trail". The names are mostly cribbed from Pacific languages and international dignitaries. That said, anyone with a soft spot for the propogation of Maori culture better get their vote on soon -- "Mister Splashy Pants" is currently winning by a mile.

Reader comments:

There is nothing wrong with Mr. Splashy Pants. It's a solid name that I would be proud to give my first born son/daughter. Before you diss Splashy Pants, I ask you this: If you lived under the sea would your pants be dry?
