Al: All right. Let's get to it. Les, since you are the challenger, you have the first choice of categories.
Les: I'll take "Epoxy Putties and Liquid Metals." [musical tone]
Al: Excellent choice. Heidi? Thank you, Heidi.
Heidi: You're welcome.
Al: "To repair a hydraulic ram, what type of epoxy putty would you use, and why?"
Les: I'd go with titanium, since it resists temperatures of 350° Fahrenheit and has a compression strength of 18,000 PSI. It also provides a nonrusting, machinable finish, and features excellent resistance to a broad range of chemicals.
Al: Hm, hm, hm, hm, hm.
Tim: It was an easy question, all right?
Al: All right, Tim. Your question. Heidi? Thank you. "In a nonrusting aluminum epoxy, what are the percentages of aluminum and epoxy?"
Tim: Easy. Everyone knows that. 70% aluminum, 30% epoxy.
Les: Actually, that's 80% aluminum and 20% epoxy.
Tim: 70%, 80%. What's the difference?
Al: One is right and one is wrong. All right. Round one goes to... [fanfare] Les!
