Kedves Kollegak!

Azok szamara, akik meg nem hallottak errol az uj feldezeserol! 

Termeszetesem tudom, ez Magyarorszagon elkepzelhetetlen manapsag, 

de azert elkuldom...(Elnezest, hogy csak angolul van meg.)

Newly Discovered Scientific Element             
                                                              
A major research institution has recently announced the discovery of the 

heaviest element yet known to science.  This new element has been 
tentatively named "Administratium." Administratium has 1 neutron, 

12 assistant neutrons, 75 deputy neutrons, and 111 assistant deputy
neutrons, 

giving it an atomic mass of 312. 

These 312 particles are held together by forces called morons, which are 
surrounded by vast quantities of lepton-like particles called peons. 

Since Administratium has no electrons, it is inert.  However, it can be 
detected as it impedes every reaction with which it comes into contact. A 
minute amount of Administratium causes one reaction to take over 4 days to 
complete when it would normally take less than a second. 

Administratium has a normal half-life of 3 years; it does not decay but 
instead undergoes a reorganization in which a portion of the assistant 
neutrons and deputy neutrons exchange places. In fact, Administratium's 
mass will actually increase over time, since each reorganization causes 
some morons to become neutrons, forming isodopes. 

This characteristic of moron-promotion leads some scientists to speculate 
that Administratium is formed whenever morons reach a certain quantity in 
concentration. This hypothetical quantity is referred to as: "Critical 
Morass." 

You will know it when you see it.
