Hi Graham! Yes, you are the winner with a number of other folks coming in
very close seconds. I'll let Doug know that you want his Diet Mt. Dew.
The trivia question answer:
Germanium! (no, not Hillman but that was a funny response!). The discovery
of the transistor fabricated with Ge by Brattain in 1947 suddenly made Ge
a very in-demand element. Si replaced Ge as the material of choice in the
1970s as technology progressed (some folks guessed Si and you get points
for being right, just 23 years later!).

Re: [TN] NTC - Friday Elemental Trivia Question
Well if I am right, how will you deliver me the key's to Doug's Diet Dew
store? I have seen that store, but never the key which much be humungous?
Keep in mind that I will have to clear it with HM Customs
