Your an interesting character Mr Boring like to comment on how a answer could be proved correct with no net proof ?

 

[Mr Boring]

Was just on another post and thought of a question that I thought maybe couldn't be answered fully by the net. Is the newly discovered "super heavy element 117" heavier than gold? its something you would need to work out on paper

 

[Mr Boring]
