Hi folks - I will begin posting the Friday Element Quiz on Thursday PM to
give folks in other time
zones/global locals more opportunity to participate.
The Question:
This element has only one isotope with a reasonably long half life (1380
years) but is very difficult to produce in quantity. This element has no
commercial uses. The largest piece of this metallic element produced is
0.5 mg. Very little is known about this element's properties aside from
its crystal structure, melting point, and bulk modulus. What element am I?
The winner of this week's quiz will get to have Clumpy, the 8th dwarf,
work for them for a week. Thanks to Graham Collins to transporting Clumpy
across the Atlantic to Ian's facility. Also, Gary Ferrari of Garrick
Global tied Ian in answering last week's quiz so Clumpy is going to have
to make a additional stop sometime this week (sorry Gary - I initially
missed your email).
So far Clumpy has:
Week 1 Lamar Young, SCS Coatings - accomplished nothing (drank lots
of coffee)
Week 2 Bev Christian, RIM - conducted REACH material testing
Week 3 Drew Meyer, Bench - Solderability testing and mowing
the lawn
Week 4 Ian Fox, Goodrich - ???? Ian owes us a description
Week 4 Gary Ferrari, Garrick Global - ???? Gary will owe us a description
once Clumpy arrives
Week 5
Good Luck.
