americium? neptunium?
NO, NO, NO, NO, NO! Those are transuranics! Look at the table! GEESH. You girls just don't know anything about important things.

Technitium (atomic number 43) is a suburanic element that is radioactive with fairly short halflife. Consequently, it does not exist naturally.

Although back in THE 1920's somebody thought they had discovered it, named it masurium, and it showed up on periodic tables for a while. So it may not be one of the 2 missing elements on thames' table.
