I disagree with the comment left by Google Corporate @72.14.228.129

The Unisphere is now known as the Globitron on hundreds of web pages whose authors scooped that bit of garbage off this web site and treated it as fact.

I do not know who vandalized the Unisphere entry with that admittedly underhanded and clever "globitron" aside but I spotted it last year and thought it was hilarious. I have tocked the travels of the Globitron horseshit ever since it first landed here.

Unfortunately error-riddled entries like this quickly and permanently travel the Internet, popping up #1 on all the searchies and littering web sites of the naive who heard from someone who heard from someone else that Wikipedia was a useful and authoritative resource.

And guess what? I don't care! I think it's funny.
