Thanks, Dave.
Hmm, the boys can use my John Deere with the 44" snow blower attachment to do the driveway.  Not sure if they have any bookish bent, if they do they can help with a revamp/extend my electronics manufacturing course and add more on FA and cleaning.

Regards,
Bev

Subject: [TN] Element Quiz Answer

Hi folks - here is the Quiz:

The Question:
This element is not found in nature as a free element. This element caused an evolution in color TV technology in the 1960s. Mountain Pass California and Bayon Obo China are two primary sources for this element. The two classes of this element's phosphors (red and blue), combined with the yellow/green terbium phosphors give "white" light, and is typically encountered in helical fluorescent light bulbs. This element's phosphors are used in the anti-counterfeiting phosphors in Euro banknotes. What element is being described?

The Answer:
The element is Europium (Eu). Before the introduction of europium, the colorTV red phosphor was very weak, and the other phosphor colors had to be muted, to maintain color balance. With the brilliant red europium phosphor, it was no longer necessary to mute the other colors, and a much brighter color TV picture was the result. The signature of europium in stellar spectra can be used to classify stars and inform theories of how or where a particular star was born.


The winner(s) of the quiz  is Bev Christian and he will get the services of Clumpy & Kloumpios for the week.
