New element discovered!
 
A research institute has recently discovered what is believed to be the heaviest chemical element yet known to science.

The new element has been named Governmentium. Governmentium has 1 neutron, 12 assistant neutrons, 75 deputy neutrons, and 11 assistant deputy neutrons, giving it an atomic mass of 312.

These 312 particles are held together by forces called morons, which are surrounded by vast quantities of lepton-like particles called peons. Since governmentium has no electrons, it is inert. However, it can be detected as it impedes every reaction with which it comes into contact. A minute amount of governmentium caused one reaction to take over 4 days to complete when it would normally take less than a second.

Governmentium has a normal half-life of 2 to 4 years; it does not decay, but instead undergoes a reorganization in which a portion of the assistant neutrons and deputy neutrons exchange places.

In fact, governmentium mass will actually increase over time, since each reorganization causes some morons to become neutrons, forming isodopes. This characteristic of moron-promotion leads some scientists to speculate that governmentium is formed whenever morons reach a certain quantity in concentration. This hypothetical quantity is referred to as Critical Morass.

That's really funny. :thumbsup:

My science geek friends will love that, thanks

Now that is a well thought out joke. I like it.

im going into Chemisty next year, im going to love telling that joke.

beautifully thought out, my hat is off to you.

Oh, that's a keeper. I'll have to send that along. Thanks!

Was I supposed to mention that it was another email forward? I just made sure that no one else had posted it already and then pasted it in.

I only *wish* I was a creative enough writer to write things like that...

Glad you all like it though!
