Geep: "Relative abundance.." Yup, yer right, I'm wrong. At least I think I'm wrong....but I'll still have to go back and see about that relative abundance theory. Cosmology indicates that the early Universe was composed of "primeval" stuff, ie. Hydrogen, Helium and to a lesser extent Lithium, out of which "percolated" the other elements of the periodic table. This being accomplished mainly through the avenue of time and gravity(and they think strings, per yesterdays Times article, may have been a concentrating force). Still, I probaby mis-spoke meself when correlating periodic table number with relative abundance, eh?
As for Yahoo......well, you're right of course. I don't read the obviously ignorant stuff once I've associated their ID's with a propensity towards self-flagellation. I've nevered enjoyed watching folks embarrass themselves so I skip right over them without even looking. But if an unknowwn ID raises an interest point...well...ya gotta respond, eh? Still, I will admit, Yahoo does themselves a tremendous disservice, and negatively impacts their business ultimately, by not corraling the type of behavior manifest on their VLNC thread(despite the liberal call for "free speech").
