Waht's new??

BTW, Hadrian never said if it was a ham or not.

I am still thinking about the one ROBERT put up. I have a good one to put up but won't until after at least one of the two above are solved. Stay tuned!

It is mineral, but not clay.
You're in trouble if you've got one.



Which one? As in animal, vegitable or mineral OR as in sheet silicate?


It is a mineral found in animals.

Correct JimBob, Kidney stone surface by Stephen Gschmeissner,
 from the Visions-of Science competition 2003:-

   
" Kidney stones form when salts crystallise out of urine, usually due to a metabolic disorder. The sharp edges seen at high magnification contribute to the pain the stones cause as they become lodged in the kidneys and surrounding areas.

Oh heck, my minds blank, I can't think of what to call it, but it looks like a glass cover that goes over a light bulb.

It looks like a very pretty cut art glass candle stick holder, the ones that hold a small tea lite. Or what some call a votive cup and the candle sits down in the cutout ring inside the beautiful glass votive holder!... Who knows!.....Karen[
