If not for the missing S, I'd go with Spark :lol:

How about an R anyway?

At the risk of killing our guy I dare say quark.

Re: Hangman
 

Actually, Bolaf, you saved our guy! I suppose I may have been a bit misleading since a quark is subatomic, much smaller than an element. My thinking though was as a component of an element, it is elementary. :silly:

Re: Hangman
 

Hel, does that mean you knew the answer and didn't get there before me? Or you can't believe you didn't see it? :thinking: Cause if you knew it, I'll bequeath the next turn to you (once Bolaf confirms it, of course). Now watch, it's probably wrong. :lol9:

Re: Hangman
 

No, it's obviously correct ("yes, the red ones are totally distracting...."), I just couldn't make a word out of .err... , even if, as I said, I already thought it had to be 'red something' after celli's e-s :)
