rztmartini Posted October 26, 2007 Share Posted October 26, 2007 I was in Chemistry class the other day and was thinking about cars while staring blankly at the big laminated periodic table in the room and noticed an odd coincidence that Calcium, Strontium, and Rubidium are right next to each other and their chemical symbols are Ca, Sr, and Rb, respectively. Any resemblance to certain Japanese-car maker engine codes? Coincidence? I think not... any other thoughts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warren Posted October 26, 2007 Share Posted October 26, 2007 Seems you may have made one too many trips to Maui, had one too many pineapples, eaten too much sugarcane, or just have ENTIRELY too much time on your hands. Perhaps a trip to the mainland would do you some good. (Just playing, no offense intended). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
