Superheavy metal "Lemmium"

Recently discovered in Japan, Russia and the US, (Joint Institute for Nuclear Research in Dubna, Oak Ridge National Laboratory in Tennessee and Riken institute), these elements of the, now complete, 7th period of the periodic table of elements with atomic numbers 113, 115, 117 and 118 will get permanent names soon, according to the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry.

These elements are classified as "superheavy" for they are composed of more than 104 protons, they last some milliseconds at maximum and they were created using particle accelerators.

Almost simultaneously, Motorhead frontman Lemmy, most iconic figure of Heavy rock, the very essence of heavy metal died on december 28th at his home in Los Angeles, shortly after celebrating his 70th birthday.

Some Heavy metal fans around the world believe it is fitting that the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry recommend that Ununoctium 118 (temporary name), the latest, and heaviest of the four newly discovered Heavy Metals in the Periodic table is named Lemmium. A petition's been set up by John Wright, a business support manager in this intention, we believe this intention is good and we encourage any to sign it, simply because "Only way to feel the noise is when it's good and loud".
