Hi folks - Here is the Friday Element Quiz Answer:

The Question:
This element has no biological role in humans. This element used to be one 

of the first element we encountered as a baby. This element was known to 
the Chaldeans. What element is being described?

The Answer:

The element is Silver (Ag)! Silver has been known to humans for several 
thousand years. The Chaldeans are credited with inventing the process of 
refining silver (cupellation)around 2500 BC. Silver nitrate solution eye 
drops were often put into newborn babies eyes to prevent blindness (first 
demonstrated by German obstetrician Dr. F. Crede in 1884). 


The winner of the weekly element quiz is Dick Krug, Spartan Complex 
Systems and he will get the services of Clumpy and 
Kloumpios for the week. The boys hopped on their tractors and were zooming 
off to Florida - they seemed very happy to get away from the snow and cold 
here in Iowa.

Also, on this second round of the Friday Element Quiz, there is the 
possibility that we may cover an element more than just once - the FEQAB 
imposed this rule to keep Doug a bit off balance.


So far Clumpy and Kloumpios have done the following:
