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.

Hi folks - Here is the Element Quiz Answer

The Question:
This element has no stable isotopes on Earth so very little is known about
its properties. No one has been able to figure out how to refine this
element from other natural minerals either. The longest half life for this
element is 20 minutes.Only about one ounce of this element is found in the
Earth crust in terms of it being produced by natural processes. What
element is being described?

The Answer:
The element is Francium (Fr)! Francium is the only element between atomic
numbers 1-92 that has a half life of less than 30 minutes. The element
discovery is credited to Marguerite Perey, a French physicist who worked 
at
the Curie Institute in Paris. She named the element after her country -
France.

The winner of the weekly element quiz is Karen Tellefsen, Alpha, and she
will get the services
of Clumpy and Kloumpios for the week (they jumped on a cargo flight out of
Cedar Rapids this morning).

The Element Quiz Arbitration Board (EQAB) disallowed Mordechai's response
due to the fact that he used Wikipedia which is not an allowable reference
source for Quiz participants. And of course, EQAB blames Doug for causing
Mordechai's response to be disqualified.


So far Clumpy and Kloumpios have done the following:

- Clumpy need not worry.  We have no major issues at hand in the lab.It is
now above 32F for a whole day here.  So close to Easter it is time for a
break.  Perhaps he can make some Tsoureki Paschalino with his spare time.
It will be fun to have him visit again and catch up on his world travels.
- A good week.  Oil changed on the John Deere.  Blades are sharp and
ready.  A little Easter baking done!  Heard the John Deere heading for I90
when I got up this morning. Clumpy said something about never letting Dave
travel alone.

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
- assisted with ????


Everyone have a safe week.
