Ever wonder what the various elements look like in their pure form?  An amusing video created to accompany the [in]famous Element song.

What all the elements look like in under 2 minutes (Song: Tom Lehrer-The Elements)

It's always nice to hear that one again!
I liked the depictions of the gases.   :)

I've always liked that song since I first heard it, but I just love it with the visuals.  Fantastique!
