Neat Wikipedia Entry #2: Immature Puns Edition

Posted by Non-Shannon

Being a chemist, and one with a childish sense of humor at that, I was filled with glee upon discovering this Wikipedia entry:

Cummingtonite
Cummingtonite or magnesium iron silicate hydroxide is a metamorphic amphibole with the chemical composition
(Mg,Fe)7Si8O22(OH)2.

My preferred definition: What The Thing’s…um…thing is made of.

Femizonian beat-down
