That might be a little drastic.

Hi, Trucker.......

How about a Super Bowl Pick?

I'll start. New England Patriots

(and I don't care what 'they' say. Who started all that bruhaha, anyway?)

[trucker2000]

Definately a little drastic.

I was rootin for NE my son's girlfriend was rootin for that other team.
Was a great game.

[lswot]

Good game.......that ending was one for the books.

CERN: Test results show more detail about 'God particle'

(Of course, when the Higgs boson got that other name, it's likely that somebody simply dropped the "damn" from the nickname. )

It's all Greek to me.

Could Physics' Reigning Model Finally Be Dethroned?
Gotta watch those B mesons and tau-leptons!

(Why can't physicists speak English? )

[lswot]

Because they can't

[Henry J]

Yeah, it would involve learning to particulate the words for the particle types.

[lswot]

Well, yeah.........

Webelements

I see they've given names to the last four elements to be added to the periodic table.

113 Nh Nihonium (added 2003)
115 Mc Moscovium (added 2003)
117 Ts Tennessine (added 2010; now it has a stately name)
118 Og Oganesson (added 2002)

(114 Fl and 116 Lv were added in a previous millennium )

(I wonder when they'll start the eighth period?)

[lswot]

It's all Greek to me!

[Henry J]

Greek? It's elementary!

[Xjmt]

Greek is elementary? I thought Holmes was from England!

[Henry J]

Well, I guess that's where the principle of uncertainty comes in.
