- I couldn't reply to your mail, the mailer barfs on your address.

- The CRC I mentioned is the Chemical Rubber Co. Handbook of Physics and
- Chemistry. "Handbook" is misleading, it weighs several pounds. It has
- sections discussing almost everything about physics and chemistry. It
- has a listing (not chart) of all the isotopes, their decay modes (if
- radioactive), decay energys, their abundances in nature, etc. Also listings
- of zillions of organic and inorganic compounds, etc.
- Many people simply call it the CRC (or even "The Rubber Bible"), it is well
- known in the science fields.
