I just read the link to the news article about the 118th element!
It stated that it only existed for a few thousandth of a second!
At first I thought, too bad. Then it hit me, it was gone in ' The twinkling of an eye '.!!!
Wow, the coincidences just keep coming???
 
Also, John Tng's Rapturette article on Mercury passing just blew me away.
More coincidence???
I don't think so!

Hi Tom, The metal MERCURY was named after the Roman god Mercury, known for speed and mobility (TWINKLING). :)
