Thomas Midgley Jr. has the unfortunate distinction of being associated with two of the biggest global environmental issues: tetraethyl lead and CFCs! Midgley was a chemist on the General Motors Dayton Research Labs teams that introduced tetraethyl lead and one of the first CFC materials (Freon 12). In 1921 he gave himself lead poisoning while demonstrating the tetraethyl lead was not harmful to humans (he inhaled the chemical fumes for several minutes).

The boys left from Graham's house today and are heading across the pond for Heathrow on a cargo flight. They should be to James's facility by late today.

> The Element Quiz Arbitration Board (EQAB) reviewed Doug's submission of "Ethylium" and has initially rejected his submission as the correct response. A search of the Dayton Research Laboratories records finds no indications of a connection to Mrs. Midgley. However, the EQAB has initiated testing of both Diet Coke and Diet Mt. Dew for the presence of Ethylium as the effect Doug detailed has been observed when Doug, Dave, the Rockwell Collins minions,the TechNet forum, the IPC committees and various other segments of the industry consume those two beverages. EQAB plans on having Bev Christian conduct detailed FTIR assessment for the presence of Ethylium since Bev's lab has a very extensive FTIR library on beverages as they relate to being spilled on cell phones.
