opera

A very fine browser, perhaps the best one out there, with nicer users than Firefox.

Opera's users don't try to forcefully convert people like Firefox's users.

technetium

A silvery element, at. no. 43, symbol Tc, that does not appear to occur in the Earth's crust at all due to its radioactivity. It is the lightest radioactive element and is produced by deuteron bombardment of molybdenum.

Technetium is one of the most powerfull preventatives of rust.

oxygen

don't forget 30 per cent of the human body :) it was once thought to be the common element in all acids, but that turned out to be hydrogen.

Ozone is an allotrope of oxygen.

allotrope

one of at least two different forms of an element. Different allotropes of a substance often have very different properties from each other; e.g. white phosphorus (P4) is a highly reactive and toxic substance that glows in air due to its high reactivity and possesses a molecular structure, while red phosphorus (the stuff used to make strikers on match boxes) is a non-toxic substance that has a polymeric structure.

White tin is a shiny, electrically conductive metal usefull for plating cans to prevent corrosion, while gray tin is a semiconductor that possesses no uses whatsoever

Strong Bad checks his emails usually every Monday.

deuteron

A deuterium nucleus; namely, a proton and a neutron. It is used in nuclear applications, such as the bombardment of molybdenum plates to create technetium plates. With an electron, it forms the stable hydrogen isotope of deuterium or "heavy hydrogen", symbol D, atomic wt. 2. Water with both hydrogens replaced by deuterium is called "heavy water" (D2O), and is used as a moderator in the harnessing of nuclear fuels.

I swear that deuterons have somethingy to do with the book of Deuteronomy, 5th book of the Old Testament.
