NO forum is "go nowhere". Useless, yes, but not go nowhere.

Carbon Fiber.

sgtfuzzbubble011 · 1st October 2000, 01:13

Sorry dudes. Neither of those are alloys. Aluminum is a metal and carbon fiber is a composite. Alloys are a mixture of metals like stainless steel or copper ferrite.

And btw, why the hell do the British (no offense) pronounce 'aluminum' like 'aluminium' (ah-loo-min-ee-um)? It's only got one 'i' in it.

sgtfuzzbubble011 · 1st October 2000, 01:16

Come to think of it, titanium graphite isn't an alloy either. Carbon is a nonmetallic element. Oops.

Sarge, every English-speaking country in the world apart from North America spells "aluminium" with two "i"s.

pukkaboy · 1st October 2000, 15:37

come to think of pronounciations, how do you say xerxes?
is it (zer - eez)?
or (zerk - sees)?
or (zer - ox)

why did persian kings have such strange names?

I don't remember...

But in my head, I've always said it like the second one. "(zerk - sees)"

SexyLoserKitten · 2nd October 2000, 02:18

Me too Flynz...but I've always wondered about that too....

Xerxes · 2nd October 2000, 13:15

Yes, Selection (B) is correct- it's
"Zerk-sees" - A persian king AND one of
my favorite classical compositions (Handel of course)

Persian Kings didn't have REAL wierd names-
one is still used today. (Darius) It's not
as bad as say... Agamemnon or Nebuchadnezzar.

I was always wondering 'bout that too. But I wondered correct.

I've always liked white gold but not pure gold...
White gold contains 25% platinum or 12% palladium
Green Gold - contains 30 - 40% silver or silver plus cadmium and zinc
Yellow Gold - contains silver & copper.
Red Gold - contains a higher percentage of copper

And I suppose you spell it theatre while I spell it theater, huh? It's pronounced the same, just spelled differently. I never could figure that out. Oh well, I hate the English language anyway. I speak NyQuillian much better.
