A bowl of strawberries for you![edit]

[I'm a newbie] I really liked your simple, clear, chart showing atomic radius of elements, in atomic number sequence. It thrilled me to wonder about those coarse patterns it made apparent. NB: 50+ yrs ago I took my regular one yr of HS physics, one yr chem in US public schools. so it made me look for an identically formatted chart or table, but in shell radius order instead; and then perhaps one with an overlaid data line of atomic weight, or some other value which it seems to me the spatial nature of your table uses as its charted Y-value. I couldn't find one, formatted like yours, and now typing this I wonder "Is this really dumb, nonsensical, merely uneducated in what rudiments of basic chemical/physical structure are just common knowledge to those in these fields?" Anyway, loved the visual-numerical impact of your chart. THANKS! (Bill Marston, architect, Philly, strawberry lover - local organic in-season only) Arfita (talk) 02:35, 20 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
