More Destructive Than El Nino? - Those people who were outside in the heart of the '97-98 El Nino may have imagined the devil laughing and beckoning to them as destruction and chaos reigned. In counterpoint to question 6, what Black Sabbath song off of the "Black Sabbath" album contain the lyrics, "My name is Lucifer, please take my hand"?
The correct answer is 'N.I.B.'
"N.I.B." is rumored to stand for Nativity in Black, tempting people to love Lucifer instead of Jesus Christ.

The whole line is, "Look into my eyes, you'll see who I am, My name is Lucifer, please take my hand".
