there are still two unidentified sub-uranics
Let see, technitium and ??? (Can't remember that other one.)


americium? neptunium?

It's hard to keep them all straight, I know. What with the sub-uranics and the darned trans-uranics and all.

Sigh.

Actually I think we may be worrying any remaining lurkers.
"Well, we could go for high finance on a thread about turnips, or - hey, what's this nudist one? Oh, poisons and explosives. Turnips for me".

Promethium was also missing (and a couple of abbreviations were strange - #91 was Ux), and you're right it did become known as radon... very very old.
The iron(6) involved heating iron filings mixed with KN03 and KMnO4... another usefully unstable substance. After the petri dish fiasco I returned to more portable mayhem.

E? Bored? Never.
