A major research institution, specialising in the subject of Management Science, has today announced the discovery of the heaviest element yet known. This new element has been tentatively named “Administratium.”
Administratium has 1 neutron and 12 assistant neutrons. There are also 75 deputy neutrons and 111 assistant deputy neutrons. This gives an atomic mass of 312. These 312 particles are held together by forces called morons. These are surrounded by vast quantities of lepton-like particles called peons.
Since Administratium has no electrons, it is inert. However, it can be detected as it impedes every reaction with which it comes into contact. A minute amount of Administratium causes one reaction to take over 4 days to complete. Normally this would take less than a second.
Administratium has a normal half-life of 3 years; it does not decay but instead undergoes a reorganisation. A portion of the assistant neutrons and deputy neutrons exchange places. In fact, Administratium’s mass will actually increase over time, since each reorganisation causes some morons to become neutrons, forming isodopes.
This characteristic of moron-promotion leads some scientists to speculate that Administratium is formed whenever morons reach a certain quantity in concentration. This hypothetical quantity is referred to as “Critical Morass”.
