Well, "Big BLU" is a play on "Big Blue, " and not the IBM super computer,
but just south of Boston are the Blue Hills, the "Great Blue Hill" called
"Big Blue."

Trivia:
WGBH call lettes mean Great Blue Hill[s]
While they are currently green, thge blue hills were once covered with
wild blueberries.

This cluster will be minuscule compared to lots of the clusters
out there, like the real "Big Blue".

Perhaps a name that doesn't imply a large size might be better.

"Blu Clu"  (BLu Cluster), pronounced "blue clue"

Hmm - "Big BLU" seems more fun.


oh well, random thought.
