    Stop it! My memories of caesium's immense destructive power come from a video in 3rd year chemistry where it was the only one to break the beaker.

    You're ruining my illusions!

    I was watching a video of each of the alkali metals being added to water. Trying to find it (without much luck) just now.

    Here you go:- http://www.theodoregray.com/Periodic...ngs/index.html

    Good wee article (with pics and videos) by a man* who chucked each of the alkali metals in a bowl of water and filmed what happened.


    *This guy has managed, over a number of years, to collect all the natural elements (bar three) in one form or another. Most are pure samples.

    Oh! In other news my good friend David McCulloch, by trade a furniture maker of some talent, has agreed to design and build a wall-mountable periodic table shaped display cabinet for me. For a fee.
    I'm assured it will be "cool" and "imaginative" and "contemporary".

    Les, that's a bit of a shit collection so far.

    I can get copper, lead, iron, tungsten, mercury and oxygen next door without even trying. Finger out man.
