I didn't understand a whole lot of that (I took physics in high school instead of chemistry) but what I did understand is awfully neat.

The nonspecifics of it are basically "because Mercury is very big and doesn't have a lot of possible bonds."

This implies that the next element down would be even less cohesive, and in fact all indicators seem to point to the fact that Copernicum probably is a gas at room temperature, but that's not very well documented because Copernicum is not a naturally occurring element and also HOLY SHIT IT'S METAL GAS GET IT AWAY FROM ME AAAAA

(Also it tends to explode when it comes into contact with practically anything in the physical universe.)

I don't, actually. Aside from that, which courses I took in high school was a decision I made about ten years before I started culinary school.

Mobile wireless power? It's already here (albeit on a very small scale).

Do you understand how terrifying the words “vibrating strap on” are for an asexual? That’s like saying “the holocaust” to a Jew.

a little known derivation of Eddington's Law (wherein an infinite number of monkeys at typewriters eventually bash out the script for Hamlet) in which in an infinite universe, with an infinite number of points of view upon an infinite number of vistas, eventually you'll recreate all the great movie posters of the 20th century.

Yeah, it took me a while to realize that was the part you meant too. I read the comic three times looking for some kind of relevant reference.
