Hi folks - Here is the Friday Element Quiz Answer:

The Question:
This element is found on the moon. If this element catches fire, water or 
CO2 extinguishers will not put it out. This element's oxide is found in 
type M stars. What element is being described?

The Answer:

The element is Titanium (Ti)! Titanium oxide bands are a prominent in the 
spectra of M-type stars. These stars have a surface temperature of 3200C 
and are red in color. Titanium is the ninth most abundant element in the 
earth's crust.


The winner of the weekly element quiz is James Head, Crowcon Detection 
Instruments Limited, and he will get the services of Clumpy and 
Kloumpios for the week. The boys were quite excited to be heading over to 
his facility as they had a great time on their last visit. And to answer 
Bev Christian's question, yes, the FEQ clues are going to be more 
difficult this time around.


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 ????

Week 3 James Head, Crowcon Detection Instruments Limited
- assisted with ????


Everyone have a safe week!

Dave Hillman
