<VV> Progress once again! (CHEMISTRY HUMOR)

What we have here, folks, is proof positive that one Corvair is an unstable
condition, naturally attracting a second Corvair, which complete the first
shell.  Two Corvairs seems to be the equivalent of a noble gas, a condition
that can sustain itself indefinitely.  

I'm wondering whether the analogy breaks down with the next ring, where the
next complete state would be ten Corvairs....
