Atomic collisions created all sorts of debris, including fragments from both calcium and tungsten nuclei, Sounds like the kind of mess my three youngest kids make of my house on a Saturday afternoon.

Ah. Good. It has a commercial application...I don't think that heavier beer cans is such a good idea...though it would bring NEW meaning to "12-oz curls..."

Heavy aluminum. Why? ‘Cause light aluminum goes out when you pull the plug?

"Like Adam in the book of Genesis, the heavy magnesium nuclei started appearing on the fifth day of the experiment." No, it's like GM installing auto brakes on the fifth day of production.
Wait- it's more like filing taxes, exactly five business days after completing an audit.
NO! I have a better analogy..........
