How to remember in order the most common Elements on our planet? our normally visible planet Earth surface domain consists predominately of only eight elements:1 - oxygen, 2 - silicon, 3 - aluminum, 4 - iron; 4 letters - o, s, a, i. That is easy to remember. Then 5 - calcium, 6 - sodium, 7 - potassium, 8 - magnesium; 4 more letters - c, s, p, m. Those 8 are the eight major rock forming elements.That is what most rocks we see are made of. I Remember THE Sail Boat "IDEA." mnemonic -. ‘Oh! Suddenly An Idea Came Sailing Past Me!’ o s a i; c s p m. That is what makes up ninety nine percent of mud.” That last one percent consists mostly of just eight more elements. In decreasing order, they are titanium, hydrogen, phosphorus, manganese, fluorine, barium, carbon, and strontium; T, h, p, m, f, b, c, s. The eight minor rock forming elements.‘The Heavier Parts Made From Bigger Constructed Stars.’ That gets you to 99.9 percent of all mud. IF you can come up with something better PLEASE share it!

About ten years ago the rumor started that aluminum cooking pans were causing cancer and we needed to get rid of all aluminum. When the rumor reached our rock club, using my numismatic I remembered that aluminum IS THE MOST COMMON METAL ON EARTH'S SURFACE. There is no possible way to get rid of it PERIOD. I was able to explain to the club that aluminum is the third most common element on the earth's surface and therefore could not possibly be the cause for cancer or we could never have been born.

Aluminum almost never exists in the earths crust as free metal. The process of turning the element into a metal alters it from the element considerably. It is known that aluminum in the bloodstream will pass through the blood/brain barrier and is believed to possibly cause, and definitely accelerate the advance of Alzheimer's.

Can we do away with all aluminum cookware and stop Alzheimer's?
