Geekiness knows no end at these conferences, as witnessed by this very cool and very geeky mini-cupcake.
Yes, that is an element cupcake! One of the booths I walked by had a large periodic table displayed and on each element was a cupcake with the element name on top!!! How could I possibly pass up one of these?!?!?! I took Dubnium, and it was delicious!!!
Dubnium is not naturally found on Earth but can be created in a lab. It doesn't last very long. It has a half-life of 32 hours, meaning that if you had a block of it, in 32 hours, half of it will have decayed into smaller elements. Yikes! What is it used for? I did a quick search, and apparently nothing! LOL! But it was a yummy cupcake and in this case, had a half life of just a few seconds!!!
