My apologies to everyone.

I need to learn how to read e-mails (slowly).

Mark.

Subject: [TN] NTC Friday Element Quiz - The Answer

Hi folks - Here is the Friday Element Quiz Answer:

The Question:
This element was known as "Element X" for a period of time. The wave length of 2.08 micrometers. What element is being described?

The Answer:

The element is Holmium (Ho). Early investigators suspected there was another element often found hiding in erbium oxide samples but no one was able to positively identify it so it was dubbed "Element X" for a number of years. Ho lasers operate at a wavelength of 2.08 micrometers which is eye safe and is approved for a number of surgical applications.


The winner of the weekly element quiz is Laura Turbini and she will get the services of Clumpy and Kloumpios for the week. 


So far Clumpy and Kloumpios have done the following:


Past Quiz winners/tasks:
Week 1 Dick Krug,  Spartan Complex Systems
- Clumpy and Kloumpios arrived and were happy to get some warm weather. 
Saturday they helped rake leaves (yes it's fall in Tampa) then went to the 

Florida State Fair.  They seemed most interested in some of the new tractors, muttering something about the closed cab would be a more comfortable ride, but they also took advantage of the opportunity for Fair 

food.  I couldn't believe how much deep fried food they ate - Snickers, butter, burgers, ..., you name it.  Yesterday they didn't feel good so just sat around in the sun most of the day. This week I'm going to pick their brains on how to improve our ECN implementation process.  If they can't contribute much I'll send them back to the fair as sort of a winter vacation. 

Week 2 Laura Turbini, IRC
- assisted with ????


Everyone have a safe week - hope to see you at the APEX show in San Diego!
