Six Beasties on halls of fame

The Six Beasties project had this to say about the (empty) Hall of Fame which is located by the side of the long road to a well-known fiery place:

Halls of Fame, you see, are shrines to human achievement. But bear in mind that the beasties have been here a long, long time and (rack their disturbing minds though they might) they cannot find it in themselves, objectively, to commemorate anything which that earthly species has achieved. After all, in these circles there are things like sulphur burning for eternity, or even the whole of creation notched up in six days. With that kind of accomplishment as the background, which human achievements are worthy of fame? None at all. A Hall of Futility they could fill a million times over, but here, away from the subjectivity of high record sales or freak batting averages, humans fail to impress.
