Superdude, I think Spam baffles even the greatest minds in chemistry. I mean, mechanically separated chicken? What the hell is that? [sub]Nevermind, I don’t want to know[/sub]. Now that you’ve made me think of Spam and gotten me all queasy, it’s my turn for revenge. You are Barium sulfate. When suspended in water and swallowed, it allows a doctor to shine X-rays through you and watch your stomach. That’s pretty cool, but from all accounts I’ve heard, it’s one of the nastiest things you can drink. It’s all thick and it coats your throat for hours and… blech. THAT’LL learn ya to mention Spam! **

Hehehehehehe…sweet!

Sometimes, if you put a foreign chemical in water, it gets surrounded by an arrangement of water molecules. They tend not to be very stable. But, deep in the Earth, they think that the high pressure causes some of these water cages, called “clathrate hydrates,” to be stable. So, you can be CH4 * (H2O)7.25, which may be an important source of natural gas in the future.

Cool. Suits me – stability underground. Thanks, quix.

Mind you – I think I produce enough gas right now.

Hi quix, if you aren’t tired of this already, could you please do for me a chemical? I would LOVE to be able to use it as an excuse. “Oh, I am so sorry…I am just [insert chemical] so I can’t be held responsible!”

Rysdad…you’re gonna get the honor of being Rubidium. Fight crime, Mr. Super Hero! [sub]Not to give your secret away, but avoid water like Superman avoids kryptonite. It kind of makes you explode violently. I know, a terrible weakness for a superhero.[/sub]

Hm. I have a short life expectancy seeing as I live in The Land of 10,00 Lakes. :::crossing scuba diving off my list:::

chique, baby, you are very precious…So, you, my dear, are ruby, Al[sub]2[/sub]O[sub]3[/sub]

How charmingly appropriate. And, if she married me, she’d be Ruby Rubidium. hee hee

[rayniday]

rayniday, I wish I were Element 78, Platinum! Then I’d be worth a shitload more than I am. And hell, while we’re at it, you can be Palladium, Platinum’s younger brother, which costs even more than Platinum does, last I checked. Just don’t think you’re better than me!

Make that younger sister, please, and I have a new sig!

[Qwisp]

QUICKSILVER!! I like it!!
From one great Q to another, I thank you

[Dragonblink]

Me want chemical! As the only Humanities major in a four-person apartment, I gotta have something that keeps me from being a total pansy.

[Buck_The_Diver]

QUIX,

Thanks for making me an element (a snub to all you compounds out there). As a diver, I notice that Gallium stays in a liquid form over a wider range of temperatures than any other element.

Buck The Diver <—Diggin’ that liquid form

[vivalostwages]

And here I was wondering why I’ve felt a void for so many years…I must know my chemical! Oh, please…

[Janet_O]

Can I get in on this too?

[Sapphire_Bullet]

Let’s hear mine, quixy baby.

[Gravity]

Well… I failed highschool chemistry, but I swear that it wasn’t my fault!

I would love to have my own personal chemical. Please? When you have time, of course.

[Mobius74]

Have I missed my window of opportunity? Hope not. I always did want to be a man of substance.

[Verrain]

I am a molecular biologist; I must be a chemical!

[Kyla]

Okay, I usually don’t go in for these threads, but this one is to geeky for me to pass up. I want a chemical, Quixy.

[ladybug]

Can I be a chemical too, quix? Please? I always get left out of these threads.

[Chickenhead]

I would be a crystallized form of [1R-(exo,exo)]-3-(Benzoyloxy)-8-methyl-8-azabicyclo[3.2.1]octane-2-carboxylic acid methyl ester.

(Crack)

[Silver_Fire]

This could be interesting…

Hi Quix!

[quixotic78]

I’m not ignoring this thread. Just a little busy. You will all get served.

Quix

P.S. I’m Strontium. No one can take that.

[Kat]

I’d like to sign up and get my very own chemical, if it’s not too late.
