Periodic Table Pioneer Runs the Ultimate Pass
Where's the Berkelium of Influence Strategy?
January 20, 2011

We pay homage to Albert Ghiorso, 95, who passed away last month, a pioneer of the ever-expanding periodic table of chemical elements.
Not exactly a household name, Ghiorso took the "real" table to unearthly heights with the discovery of 12 elements not found in nature, but found in his work. Think americium, curium, berkelium, californium, ensteinium, fermium and mendelevium.
So we wonder...is there an Albert Ghiorso out there today who will take us from 25 "elements of infuence" to more? Where is the berkelium of influence and strategy anyway?
