Moderator mervin Posted January 12, 2008 Moderator Share Posted January 12, 2008 The discovery of the heaviest chemical element yet known to science. The new element has been tentatively named Governmentium. Governmentium has 1 neutron, 12 assistant neutrons, 75 deputy neutrons, and 224 assistant deputy neutrons, giving it an atomic mass of 312. These 312 particles are held together by forces called morons, which are surrounded by vast quantities of lepton-like particles called peons. Since Governmentium has no electrons, it is inert. However, it can be detected as it impedes every reaction with which it comes into contact. A minute amount of Governmentium causes one reaction to take over four days to complete when it would normally take less than a second. Governmentium has a normal half-life of three years; it does not decay, but instead undergoes a reorganization in which a portion of the assistant neutrons and deputy neutrons exchange places. In fact, Governmentium's mass will actually increase over time, since each reorganization will cause some morons to become neutrons, forming isodopes. This characteristic of moron-promotion leads some scientists to speculate that Governmentium is formed whenever morons reach a certain quantity in concentration. This hypothetical quantity is referred to as Critical Morass. When catalyzed with money, Governmentium becomes Administratium o?= , an element which radiates just as much energy as Governmentium since it has half as many peons but twice as many morons. PS: Occasionally, the existing neutrons, morons and peons get together -- in what is called a "CAW-CUSS" -- and try to generate a new pecking order among the possible neutron wanna-bees. Since one of these "miracles" has just finished in the Iowa, each of us should stand back in awe and behold the results. __________________ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
