AMEN to that.

Not bad parusski, but you're not there yet.

This is the sort of thing that I'm talking about:

Jesus wept.

In short, you've got to wrassle with them words, parusski, wrassle 'em like they was a bear! And until you get your word-count under control, you'll never be anything but a pretender to the crown, an unintended consort to "the Grand Old Lady." It's the only way there, fella, and 40K is at the end of the journey. Make us proud.

Warpsite1 everybody is counting on you to reach 5000 by the end of February.

I have often wondered what are peoples favourite Element. In particular I would like to know why that is, and also what symbol is used to denote said element. This could be a fascinating discussion topic n'est pas?

Maybe, but as gunhawk said, paraphrasing here, "who cares about anyone's 'favorite anything'.

So maybe their least favorite element?? Either way I will work diligently to artificially inflate your post count. We need to get you to 4110 quickly.

[:-] I am not looking to artificially inflate my post count - that is scurrilous sir. How very dare you!

I am simply looking for great stories and meaningful insight into the wonderful world of the Periodic Table.

Yeah. Also stories about TPT would be inspirational and maybe profitable to us.

Well I know its a subject dear to your heart (as proven with post 61) you are clearly attracted to Potassium are you not?

Well this isn't going too well is it? No response. I know, I'll try something to kick start the thread; What do people think of Sodium? A useful element or a little bit overrated?

It's okay W. Look how few people participate in our other high-brow threads. They have no taste.

Yes I know - I think I just need the right catalyst; like water on magnesium.

I know, who would like to say a few words on the Inert Gases?

Well I have gas at the moment. Will that do?

Erm, thanks Steiner, although I was kind of hoping for something along the lines of:

The noble, a.k.a the Inert, gases are a group of chemical elements with very similar properties: under standard conditions, they are all odorless, colorless, monatomic gases, with very low chemical reactivity. The six noble gases that occur naturally are helium (He), neon (Ne), argon (Ar), krypton (Kr), xenon (Xe), and the radioactive radon (Rn).

For the first six periods of the periodic table, the noble gases are exactly the members of group 18 of the periodic table. However, this no longer holds in the seventh period (due to relativistic effects): the next member of group 18, ununoctium, is probably not a noble gas. Instead, group 14 member ununquadium exhibits noble-gas-like properties.

Oh well, the Pepcid worked. Give me some time to over this gas attack and I will quote some Ambrose on this subject.

Great, that would be good - its definitely time to hitch the intellectual output of this thread up a notch or two. Ambrose will do just right. Ambrose knew soo much about Peanut Brittle, but if anything he knew even more about The Periodic Table [&o].

How right you are on all aspects of that post.
