Hi folks - Here is the Friday Element Quiz Answer:

The Question:
The year is 1937. What is the element and the event associated with it?

The Answer:
The element is Hydrogen (H.) The event was the crash of Hindenburg 
airship. There are several theories on what caused the Hindenburg's crash 
- one of the leading ones is a hydrogen leak in the rear lift bags of the 
Hindenburg was ignited by static electricity generated by the thunderstorm 
at the Hindenburg's landing site. The crash of the Hindenburg is often 
cited as the cause of downfall of the airship industry.


The winner of the weekly element quiz is Doug Pauls, Rockwell Collins, and 
he will get the services of Clumpy and Kloumpios for the week. 

The Friday Element Quiz Arbitration Board (FEQAB) has been reviewing 
Doug's submission with both Scanning Electron Microscopy and Ion 
Chromatography analysis techniques all day. FEQAB has come the final 
conclusion that Doug's response was the first correct answer submitted 
(they found no valid rationale to disqualify Doug's submission)! I saw 
Clumpy and Kloumpios drive out of the Rockwell parking lot heading for 
Doug's house when I was leaving work.

And so we have finally covered 112 elements in the Periodic Table! It has 
been lots of fun for me as I have gotten the opportunity to meet and learn 
about many of the members of the TechNet community. We all use the 
elements in our jobs in various ways and I hope some of the strange and/or 
odd facts about the elements have made your work week a little less 
stressful. I picked up two new books on the elements so if it is 
acceptable with the TechNet community, we can start another round of the 
Friday Element Quiz. FEQAB is also adding some extra research staff in 
anticipation of Doug's future quiz submissions.
