AUGH! I can't BELIEVE I let my subscription to The Atlantic Journal of Computational Chemistry run out! And before they published their list! Does anyone know if Ammonium tetrathio cyanatodiamminechromate made it? Or Sulfurated potash?

  I think the second one got in on a margin. Only because this hippie guy broke in and "stashed" the ballot box! that's what I heard.
  (do they even use a ballot box for these things???LOL)

I know some of those guys at The Atlantic Journal of Computational Chemistry. I think most of them meant to vote for N2O, not H2O, but couldn't see straight.

What, once more they left zinc fluoride heptahydride off the list. How can they expect any credibility at all when items get left off the top 100 list simply because they don't exist?

How about cyanoacrylates, hydrogen metasulfides and chloro-fluoro-benzene? We must protest this unfair, unilateral decision. The Pacific Journal of Computational Chemistry and Hypocrisy must respond to keep the records straight!
