Subject: [TN] Element Quiz Question
Here is the Element Quiz Question:
The Question:
This element was known to the ancients in Egypt and the Middle East for making blue glass. This element was commonly mistaken for bismuth. This element is used in the manufacture of vitamin B12. You could say that Clumpy's and Kloumpios's relatives are to blame for the origin of this element's name. An additive of this element was used to maintain the foam head on beer for a number of years until it was shown to cause medical issues. What element is being described?
The winner of the quiz will get the services of Clumpy and Kloumpios for the week.
So far Clumpy and Kloumpios have done the following:

- After feeding them all weekend, I put the boys to work soldering the battery leads (Pb-Free, of course) onto ShortSniffer boards. They were so efficient with those little fingers twisting the wire ends, they got the next 6-months production done in 4.5 hours! I gave our minimum wage technician a pink slip, telling her to re-apply in September. They had big smiles on their faces as I put them on a plane to Disney World, giving them each 3 all-day passes (after warning them to stay away from Snow White).
They should be well rested for the next Element Quiz winner.

- The guys can help me with some thermal profiling work, and maybe I will get them to help out with my "non-day-job" enterprise, setting up a craft distillery. The boys know anything about running a still? The steam lines are run but we need to get the chiller hooked up to the condenser...
