Revamping The Periodic Table?

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the things-i-only-barely-understand-in-the-first-place dept.

vinohradska writes "There is an interesting article on the periodic table over at Slate: 'Oxford ecologist Philip Stewart has designed a new periodic table of the elements, and it's a hit. American schools are placing orders daily for Stewart's table, and the Royal Society of Chemists recently sent a copy to every British secondary school. Stewart's is the only remake to achieve widespread adoption since Dmitri Mendeleev invented the original periodic table in a fit of brilliance in 1869.' "

    Since you already copied half of the article as your submission, why not post the other 1/2?

    This hardly carries as much weight when you consider the article is something like 10 sentences long.

    Mods, this isn't funny at all, it's trolling.

    Would it be funny if he start making jokes about skin colour or perhaps their ethnic background.
