Was reading up on the new element chart (didn't you know?) and found this beauty:

William Ramsay, Scottish chemist and geek extraordinaire: "The noblest exercise of the mind within doors, and most befitting a person of quality, is study."

Is it just me or does this chart resemble the perfect square?

Thank you, thank you!

I knew there was another more occult term for it, but all I could recall was the mathematical name. Been driving me nuts all day! (Hey, its a short trip!)

The golden mean, the golden section, golden square...geesh there's a lot of these!
