Napalm:

ChrichtonsGirl is right. Botany is plants, metallurgy is metal.

And POLYURETHANE IS NOT A METAL. Go find it on the elemental chart. Ummmm....not there. It's man made. And no, it is not an alloy.

Are you guys sure that botany is the study of plants and that polyurethane is not a metal? I must consult with my astrologer and get back to you - in the past, she has definitely served as a definitive resource on all matters of definitions...

Cheers,
Napalm

PS. I think some of you really do need those stupid little winky faces... (i.e., ;) - get it???)

I even said that polyurethane isn't a metal. I know its not, it doesn't have any luster! ;)

How about Mercury Member its a metal and a liquid, you'd be quite unique ;)
