• Some months ago we discovered that certain light elements emit positrons under the action of alpha particles. Our latest experiments have shown a very striking fact: when an aluminium foil is irradiated on a polonium preparation [alpha ray emitter], the emission of positrons does not cease immediately when the active preparation is removed: the foil remains radioactive and the emission of radiation decays exponentially as for an ordinary radio-element. We observed the same phenomenon with boron and magnesium.

• There is no land like England,
  Where'er the light of day be;
  There are no hearts like English hearts,
  Such hearts of oak as they be;
  There is no land like England,
  Where'er the light of day be:
  There are no men like Englishmen,
  So tall and bold as they be!
  And these will strike for England,
  And man and maid be free
  To foil and spoil the tyrant
  Beneath the greenwood tree.

  Alfred Lord Tennyson
