That's what comes of playing with californium By the way, someone's been making Clumpy a new boat for next time he has to cross the pond http://www.metro.co.uk/weird/848671-man-combines-boat-and-mower-to-creat e-shortcutter Ian -----Original Message----- From: TechNet [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Douglas Pauls Sent: 09 December 2010 15:44 To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Re: [TN] NTC Friday Element Quiz - the Question With An Additional Clue See, I told you he was evil and cranky today..............

Just got get a Diet Mt. Dew and things will become more clear. Metals rule and adhesives drool!

Californium melts at 900C, but the boiling point is not known. I can tell you that Hillman is in one of his evil modes today. Beware all responses................

But, the boiling and melting points don't agree with those listed in my CRC. Lamar From: "David D. Hillman" <[log in to unmask]> To: [log in to unmask] Date: 12/09/2010 08:12 AM Subject: [TN] NTC Friday Element Quiz - the Question With An Additional Clue Sent by: TechNet <[log in to unmask]> Hi folks - It appears that everyone is really overloaded with work, having too much fun with the holidays or I made the Friday Element Quiz too hard last week so here is an additional clue: The Question: This element has a world inventory supply of nearly 1 gram. This element is the heaviest element that has engineering use. This element melts at 900C and boils at 1470C. Bonus question: This element has two crystal structures - name the crystal structure that exists above 590C.
