Subject: [TN] Element Quiz Question



Let's see who remembers their science history and/or is good at guessing!

(Remember,  our Quiz ground rules are no using the Internet, reference books are allowed, phone a friend is encouraged - let's keep this old school).





The Question:

This element is named after a famous German mechanical engineer/physicist who was born in 1845 and died in 1923. He received this PhD from the University of Zurich in 1869. He had family in Iowa in the United States and planned to emigrate before WWI changed his plans. He is considered the father of diagnostic radiology and was awarded the first Nobel Prize in Physics in 1901. There is a mountain peak named after him 1 nautical mile

(1.9 km) southeast of Cape Cockburn in the northeast part of Pasteur Peninsula, Brabant Island, in the Palmer Archipelago. What *element* is named after this person?





The winner of the quiz will get the services of Clumpy and Kloumpios for the week.

Week 71  Eray Canli,  ANDAR Electromechanical Systems

- Boys can leave as soon as we finish forging three Damascus steel knives together, from a Vanadium doped leaf spring of an old truck...and in addition to their knives, I'll buy them cold beer for their effort and sweat!



Week 72  Russell Kido, Practical Components

- I'll have the boys check the Saber kits.  I'm staying as far away as possible!! They can help me situate some new mattresses and since they have some 'hops' and can 'sky' for being little guys, they can continue to teach my daughter their skills in jumping, rebounding and shooting.  They can also drive me from my glaucoma test and then soak up some rays.



Week 73 Denny Friz

- This week, I need different tasks from Clumpy and Kloumpios.  I think you said both can drive tractors - which one is best?  Or, which one can drive one of those wonderful red International tractors instead of the worthless green John Deeres.  OOPS, John Deere does a lot of electronics and is a big wheel in IPC.  Restated - which one can drive a crummy old red International without electronics with a 6 volt battery instead of one of those marvelous new John Deeres?  That one will be disking, spreading fertilizer, and planting seed for the hay crop on our farm next summer. The agriculturally challenged one will be helping me with reports on "the status of the US Defense Electronics Industry in support of Paragraph 845 of the 2019 Defense Authorization Act.  All three Defense in DC, Executive Agent  at Navy Crane, and IPC are working together on a report due in

January 2019.   Recently retired from SAIC/Crane - I am now playing on the

IPC team.



Week 74 ????

- assisted with ????







I hope everyone has a awesome week!
