HEY! Help me win this contest!
So I got this email from work:

Employee Idea Leads to Volt Paint Color Contest

Chevrolet is launching a public contest today to name the initial production color of the Volt, and like many good ideas, the contest idea originated with a GM employee.

Alfred Tom, Advanced Technology Silicon Valley Office, posted a question on a Bob Lutz blog post in August on the Employeeblog. Bob said "good thought" in a video reply on the blog, and today the online contest launches.

"We want to invite consumers into the development process of the Chevy Volt and give people an opportunity to be part of our program," said Maria Rohrer, director, global Volt and global marketing operations at Chevrolet. "We’re looking for a color name that captures the innovation and spirit of the Volt."

The contest is not open to GM employees or family members. The contest will award three finalists and a guest roundtrip airfare to Los Angeles, two nights standard hotel accommodations, a $400 gift card and admission to the LA Auto Show on Dec. 2. The winner will be announced by Chevy on Dec. 1 and be given the opportunity to test-drive the pre-production Volt.

Entrants can submit their color name for the initial production color, which is described as silver exterior with an emerald hue, through 8 a.m. ET on Nov. 4.
We are a unique and creative but so I'm asking, "Help me think of a name!" I'd like to get the name entered by tomorrow afternoon.
