Well, I am certainly surprised at how quickly EQAB dismissed the very reasonable and thoughtful response of the esteemed Dr. Pauls. 

He is not known to be a fabricator of stories. 

Everyone knows that Bonkium does not stick around very long, and it is quite possible that the Rockwell cleaning crew could easily have cleaned up the deposits of Bonkium under his desk inadvertently, because I know that the small black holes in the fabric of our dimension bother certain people, much like missing pieces of jigsaw puzzles on black paper.

And I take issue with the statement that Neanderthal man was never present in North America. There is a lot of evidence on TV that space invaders from other planets regularly traveled to Earth in search of Bonkium in prehistoric times, and it has been theorized within scientific circles that quite possibly these aliens could have conscripted Neanderthals to help them hunt for it, and some Neanderthals may have escaped the aliens while visiting beautiful downtown Helena, West Dakota as it was known in Neanderthal times. 

Just because nobody has ever found evidence of this does not mean it did not happen. Absence of evidence is never considered to be evidence of absence. Is there any scientific evidence that anybody ever bothered to look for Neanderthal man's presence in Montana? There were lots of dinosaurs in Montana, and everybody knows that Neanderthal man was adept at catching T. Rex and taming them so they could be used for travel and for other purposes (there are lots of examples of Neanderthal bones found mixed in with T.Rex bones where they died in battle together), so there must have been cattle drives organized to capture the wild Tyrannosaurus running across the Plains, and where else would they go to capture them? Why, Montana and Wyoming, of course. 

I would also like to point out that while it is true that evidence of Neanderthal man has never been found elsewhere in America, it is quite possible that it was missed only because it was not recognized. In some areas, such as Iowa, it has been speculated that the remains of Neanderthals may have gone undetected as they were so similar to the remains of early Iowans and Wisconsinite peoples who settled there, quite unlike the much more advanced Viking remains discovered around Decorah, Iowa which are easily recognized due to the fact that their knuckles were not deformed from walking so far across dry land. They understood it was much faster and easier to travel by boat.  

Because of the fact that the prehistoric Vikings were such excellent travelers, it has been speculated that they knew how to find and control Bonkium in such a way as to create larger black holes in the fabric of our dimension and use them as shortcuts to other areas of the world. So it makes sense that alien invaders would go straight to the Vikings in order to do the same with space travel, doesn’t it?
My two kroners worth.

Subject: [TN] Element Quiz Answer

Hi folks - Here is the Element Quiz Question

The Question:
This element is one of the first metals used by humans. Approximately 79 million tons of this element exist in the oceans but no one has figured out an economical method of extraction. Ernest Rutherford used this element to perform a now very classic experiment. What element is being described?

The Answer:
The element is Gold (Au)! Approximately 1 milligram of gold is in one ton of seawater so if you can figure out an economical way to exact it, you could quit your job. Its elemental abbreviation, Au, comes from the Latin word "aurum" which means "shining dawn". The purity of gold is measured in "carats" where one carat is equal to one part in 24. Pure gold is rated as
24 carats but is too soft to be of use in jewelry, 18 carats is typically used instead. E. Rutherford used gold foil to demonstrate atomic structure and alpha particles.


The winner of the weekly element quiz is Greg Munie, IPC and he will get the services of Clumpy and Kloumpios for the week.

The Element Quiz Arbitration Board (EQAB)reviewed Doug's submission of "Bonkium" and unfortunately disqualified his answer (yes, we know everyone is stunned by the result). The seven members of the EQAB could find no scientific records stating that Neanderthal man was ever present in North America thus invalidating Doug's West Butte Montana information. The EQAB is still researching to see if there is indeed a deposit of "Bonkium" under Doug's desk.

So far Clumpy and Kloumpios have done the following:

Week 50 Greg Munie, IPC
- I am honored to have the guys services again. Bud break is just starting in the vineyard so it's a great time for them to finish pruning and do some trellis repair. Tell them to meet me at the Lisle station. Or just "John Deere" it to the vineyard if they want. The monks will put them up in the guest house. And I'll keep 'em busy and (hopefully) out of trouble.

Week 51 Karen Tellefsen, Alpha
- There is a bamboo patch in the back of my yard that was damaged by the snow this winter, I would be grateful if the boys would clear the fallen stalks.  I hope they brought their rubber hip boots, that part of the yard is very muddy and it's raining today.

Week 52 Greg Munie, IPC
- assisted with ????


Everyone have a safe week.
