Sounds good Tom! The boys finished pulling off the summer hardware on their
John Deere tractors and have the winter attachments either on board or
ready to use. Be careful on letting them tape up window drafts - Doug
showed them how to use duct tape for those cold Wisconsin drafts he dealt
with as a youngster so you may never get the window open again!

> Here is the Element Quiz Question:

> The Question:
> This element is one of our ancient metals and known far back in human
> history. It can be found in its pure elemental form in nature. The
> element's name is derived from a Latin word. The Phoenicians at one time
> used silver to weight their anchors instead of lead due to its availability
> from a specific country. This element is one of only four metals to have an
> ISO currency code. This element plays a major role in the electronics
> industry. Which element is being described?

> The Answer:
> The element is Silver (Ag)! Silver was more expensive than gold in Egypt
> until around the fifteenth century BC due to its scarcity. Silver derives
> its name from the Latin word "argentum". When the Phoenicians first came to
> what is now Spain, they obtained so much silver that they could not fit it
> all on their ships, and as a result used silver to weight their anchors
