Am I the only one who finds the names in this headline SO FRICKIN AMAZING?!

They are all so apt -- A steampunk-sounding mechanism for combining things[1], a mythical element/alloy of magical powers, and a naked Helium nucleus. It just tickles something very artistic for me.

Edit: [1] ok fine it's actually a math function, but I like my perception of the name better.
