This reminds me of the old classic Britney's Guide to Semiconductor Physics.

I always liked Tiny Toons's version of the real particle adventure.

Ah sparkletone! Beat you to it! Are you depressed? Are you a mess? Are you totally worthless?

(Dammit, that song's going to be running through my head for days again.)

This is really good. Thanks.

Ah sparkletone! Beat you to it!

You were the first to reference the song, so yeah, you beat me to that.

But you know what I did that you didn't do?

I linked to the Tiny Toons video for the song. You didn't do that at all.

Everyone's a winner!

Is true, is true.

Right now I wish I had enough MP3 search mojo to find a link to "Schoolchildren Singing Particle Man" from off of Then: The Earlier Years which I reckon would put be back in the lead.

I really liked this. Thank you.

And remember: we're 60% water and 99.999999999999% nothing!

Good stuff, and links from both this and the Quark Dance are definitely worth following.
