• Has the heaviest element been found? - New Scientist Space
  I think I even understand the science of this one; thanks pTerry! Could a superheavy element â“ heavier than anything previously found in nature or made in the lab â“ exist naturally in the rocks of Earth?

• baseballchica03: Indiana Jones, woot!
  Jen has a poll and some scans on the new film. Which I'm going to go see. Even if I go alone. It's not Bond, but it's still cool.

Indy kicks Bond's Pretty Boy ass.

[matgb]

Nah, Bond remains cooler. Well, apart from the sexism, the public-schoolboy golf fetish and the not-being-a-scientist thing. Even if Indy's version of scientist is somewhat similar to Lara Croft's.

Bond is way cooler than Indy.

It'd be a sad sad day if you have to go alone. Take Holly!

- says the girl who's still not sure if she wants to go herself. YOU BURNED ME ONCE TWICE THREE TIMES ALREADY, LUCAS.

[matgb]

Not sure she's got the patience for a full film yet. I'll sort something out, even if it's just dragging SB along and telling her to sit.

[miss-s-b.livejournal.com]

Hol would probably hate it less than me...

Yay! Gratuitous excuse to use my Milk and Cheese icon!

*rolls eyes at Rosie Millard*

How about the obvious answer of teaching your children to share. The reason why your kids went nuts over it is that your kids are probably so overly regimented that they probably relished a little time to relax.

You also need to teach your children to follow some basic house rules.

Ha. I didn't see this post, and I was all, "Who are these random people voting in my poll and how did they find me?" :-p Due to popular demand, I will scan when I get back to PA early this week.

Only two are mine it seems, but, y'know, no pressure ;-)
