Wow, that Aluminum Foil Thickness Calculator comes in really handy. Thanks, Dammit.
ps, do you know of any sure-fire way to get through the airport detectors without removing your AFDB?

** HISTORICAL FOOTNOTE: Aluminum was originally named "alumium" by Sir Humphry Davy, who later changed it to "aluminum" (perhaps in an attempt to make it more Latinized since alumen is Latin for alum, the aluminum compound that the name is derived from). The British (and allied English speakers) shortly thereafter changed the name once more, this time to "aluminium" so that it would again match the pattern of most other elements (helium, sodium, etc.), while the North Americans eventually decided to keep the second, slightly more traditional name. I predict that North Americans will adopt the more regular "-ium" spelling by the year 2050, prompting the British to start calling it "alumininium". At that point debate can begin on changing "platinum" to "platinium"
ROFL!!!!

Thats fascinating Smurfy, I always wondered what that was all about. Especially as it was old Sir Hump that kicked it all off, what a top bloke he was. Saved my ass more than once when I worked down t'pit!
