The heaviest element known to science was recently discovered at a major
US research university (Texas A&M-Corpus Christi).  The element,
tentatively named administratium, has no protons or electrons and thus
has an atomic number of 0.  However, it does have one neutron, 125
assistant neutrons, 75 vice neutrons and 111 assistant vice neutrons,
which gives it an atomic mass of 312.

These 312 particles are held together by a force that involves
continuous exchange of meson-like particles called morons. It is also
surrounded by vast quantities of lepton-like particles called peons.

Since it has no electrons, administratium is inert. However, it can be
detected chemically as it impedes every reaction it comes in contact
with.

According to the discoverers, a minute amount of administratium causes
one reaction to take over four days to complete when it would have
normally occurred in less than a second.

Administratium has a normal half-life of approximately three years, at
which time it does not decay, but instead undergoes a reorganization in
which assistant neutrons, vice neutrons and assistant vice neutrons
exchange places. Some studies have shown that the atomic mass actually
increases after each reorganization.

Research at other laboratories indicates that administratium occurs
naturally in the atmosphere.  It tends to concentrate at certain points
such as government agencies, large corporations and universities.  It
can be usually found in the newest, best appointed, and best maintained
buildings.

Scientists point out that administratium is known to be toxic and at any
level of concentration can easily destroy any productive reaction where
it is allowed to accumulate.  Attempts are being made to determine how
administratium can be controlled to prevent irreversible damage, but
results to date are not promising.
