8*-- #10

Throat is on FIRE
    will write more about fire in the future....


Element of the day (day 8)
 #10) Ne-Neon (gas)

Discovered in 1898 by Sir William Ramsay and Morris Travers, England.
Colorless, odorless gas. Primary use is the colored lights that take their name from the element. A moderate electric current will cause even low amounts of neon to glow a bright orange-red. Also used as an inert gas in fluorescent lights, in TV tubes, lasers, and as a refrigerant. Chiefly obtained by liquefying air. 
There are no neon-bearing minerals. 

   Thinking of,, and missing you Kenny...in my heart forever
