Does this have anything to do with prestidigitation?

There was nothing wrong with your opinion on the comment either. It’s all good.

From here on out I’ll leave all board matters to…….someone else n/t

Easily fixed. Just hit “restore” under the trashed comment or post. Leave this stuff here. I’d rather have things on the board that are “inappropriate” than risk getting too picky about this kind of thing.

Oh, for God’s sake. I trashed my post at the request of RobVG, and everything under it went, too. I apologize to RobVB and TB.

For those who are curious, those posts may or may not be seen in some bin named “Trash”. If not, they were simply discussing the appropriateness of a humorous addition to the welcome of the three new elements. RobVG thought it wasn’t fitting for Space, TB and I recognized it as a joke.

Recognizing that some people’s sensitivities do not include a recognition of what I think is funny, I trashed it, inadvertently taking away RobVGs posts. I’m sure I’ll hear about that, too. I did not mean to.

Wow, Rob. I’ll delete it.

I wasn’t chastising, just citing the rules. n/t

Man-made, and the longest half-life is 26 seconds. But don’t tell anyone. It’s how I guarantee I can protect these miners.

The comment could be moved, I suppose, but we don’t have a “Completely Ridiculous” board yet.

Nah, it’s cool.

Bowser’s just making a joke. He must know as well as anyone else that nobody “mines” three-digit elements.
