Dave,
Send the boys to Long Island. It should be a good weekend for the beach even though the water will be cold. Tell the boys to bring their shorts and to be prepared for helping do FOD walks at one of my suppliers. I bet when the employees at this supplier see these 2 guys on the FOD walk it will get their attention and help raise awareness of the importance of preventing FOD.

Subject: [TN] NTC Friday Element Quiz Answer
Hi folks - Here is the Friday Element Quiz Answer (from the sunny Toronto Airport in Canada this week):
The Question:
This element does not exist in nature. All isotopes and compounds of this element are deadly sources of radiation but we all willing have this element in our homes. The initial name suggested for this element was "pandemonium". This element does have a few commercial uses (but not many). What is the element is being described?
The Answer:
The element is Americium (Am)! Americium is man made by bombarding
plutonium-239 with high energy neutrons so it is produced within nuclear reactions as a product of beta decay. Americium-241 is used in smoke detectors so please recycle them when they need replaced. American physicist Glen Seaborg suggested the name "pandemonium" for Am because of all the difficulties he and his team had in confirming the element's existence.
The winner of the weekly element quiz is Tom Carroll, Boeing Defense, Space and Security, and he will get the services of Clumpy and Kloumpios for the week.
So far Clumpy and Kloumpios have done the following:
