PioSop06 Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 I was kinda thinking a loud yelping noise, like "YIP!" or something, but Eureka! makes sense. And with the 3hree concept, I swear, if I see/hear them doing something I heard about a band down here doing, I will have to put a hit on some design staff....

ieuph7 Posted December 5, 2006 Share Posted December 5, 2006 I know it won't be this, but it would be pretty cool if it was pronounced like the band "!!!"-- chick chick chick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orpheus Posted December 6, 2006 Share Posted December 6, 2006 I was kinda thinking a loud yelping noise, like "YIP!" or something, I prefer, "Zot!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orpheus Posted December 7, 2006 Share Posted December 7, 2006 (edited) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eureka_%28word%29 I don't see where it says that "eureka" is an alternate pronuciation for "!", however. I think "Zot" and "Bang" are as good as anything else. In the British Sci-Fi series Doctor Who, The Doctor explains to his companion Leela in the episode The Talons of Weng-Chiang that Eureka is Greek for 'this bath is too hot'.In the Terry Pratchett novel Interesting Times, Cohen the Barbarian says that Eureka is Ephebian for 'Give me a towel'.
