  17. Yes, during the past few days traffic has reached a level that makes it
  18. difficult for people whose interest in cesium is restricted to a particular
  19. property. The obvious solution is to create a new alt.cesium.property
  20. hierarchy. Naturally, each new group will have a companion whose name ends
  21. in .d. As with similar arrangements elsewhere, we may be certain that
  22. posters will set the Followup-To: to the .d group. Possible names could
  23. include:
  24.  
  25. alt.cesium.property.atomic-mass
  26. alt.cesium.property.atomic-number
  27. alt.cesium.property.freezing-point
  28. alt.cesium.property.electronegativity
  29. alt.cesium.property.ionization-energy.first (.second, etc.)
  30. alt.cesium.property.color
  31. alt.cesium.property.taste
  32. alt.cesium.property.odor
  33. alt.cesium.property.ld-50
