Leland,

By implication that would suggest they might come with you to APEX. The idea of those 2 scallywags running amok in San Diego….

> Here is the Element Quiz Question:
> 
> The Question:
> This element's content in the soil varies between 2 and 150 ppm; seawater contains 1.5 parts per trillion of this element. This element has commercial application in catalytic converters for the oxidation of CO and NOx emissions in the exhaust gases. This element is is highly pyrophoric, meaning that when it is ground or scratched, the resulting shavings catch fire. This element's name is derived from the name of a dwarf planet itself is named after the Roman goddess of agriculture, grain crops and fertility. Which element is being described?
> 
> The Answer:
> The element is Cerium (Ce). Cerium is part of the Rare Earth Elements
> (REEs) but is actually more abundant than lead or tin. Cerium is named after the dwarf planet Ceres who is named after the Roman Goddess Ceres.
> The first use of cerium was in gas mantles, invented by the Austrian chemist Carl Auer von Welsbach. In 1885, he had previously experimented with mixtures of magnesium, lanthanum, and yttrium oxides, but these gave green-tinted light and were unsuccessful.Six years later, he discovered that pure thorium oxide produced a much better, though blue, light, and that mixing it with cerium dioxide resulted in a bright white light.

> Week 46 Ian Fox, Rolls-Royce Control Systems
> - Oh goody, plenty of microsections to do on some long term thermal cycle samples so that will keep them busy for the week. And a happy new year to all in TechNet land.

> Week 47 Fred Cox, Bluering Stencils
> - Great! We can use the help here in South Jersey. The boys will have to hurry. Lots of stencils to get out. If they do a great job, maybe I'll take 'em to the Eagles victory over the Vikings.
> 
> Week 48 Tom Carroll, Boeing
> - The boys will help with an early spring cleaning of the house. I'm getting to old to bend and clean all the molding and radiators around ‎the floors. I figure the boys are short enough to easily reach and clean these surfaces. After they are done with that they can help me approve some Corrective Action Responses from some suppliers and then help make nachos and salsa for the Pro Bowl this weekend.
