Hoi Art

Wow this is like watching two super computers argue over whether you should have the toilet paper feed from the bottom or the top of the roll.

At this point I am fervently hoping that Darth Cicero shows up and tried to disprove you both with the theory that aluminuininum was in fact invented by Louis Riel and that's what really lead to the Red River Rebellion.

Thus, Darth Artemis was born.

That's a cool name I think I shall steal it the next time something requires me to hide my true identity.

Now you know how much I dislike revisionism, especially such specious and fanciful revisionism as this. As Joseph Satanaya said: Those who do not remember history, are condemned to repeat it.

Anyway Darth doesn't turn up as much since every one convinced him he was a bad computer, you broke him.

but you were close.

But not close enough, now I'm going to get pissed, I'm forgetting quotes I've known all my adult life ffs.
To all the people out there that really fuck me off including you dave, I hope you get fucking glandular fever, it really, really fucks up your thought processes, which in your case would probably be a good thing.

I just came back to post that the fever must be/have been quite high for you to take on a soon-to-be PhD in CHEMISTRY on the topic of the periodic table.

Read the thread again, s l o w l y this time. It isn't about the periodic table although some elements from it were introduced later on to balance an argument, it was actually about pronounciation, in particular the pronounciation of a word from the periodic table and how that was changed sort of magically out of the blue, all unilaterally like, by the ACS, in 1925.

Being from a country that didn't get the memo that the American Chemical Society had decided to change the name, it still sounds hilarious to me when it is pronounced that way. I have been taught all my life to use an alternative spelling and form.

But I'm scared now, Idol is going to come back with that toilet paper analogy again or something as equally inane, just to show how really important this is.

The prick.

You still sound like spastics when you say aluminum.

I thought his argument to continue using aluminium stood up rather well.

On that, you'll get no arguments.

By the way, I like the pronunciation of aluminium. But then again, it's always fun to hear s talk.
