Ars wrote Atomic weights revised, reality stays the same "Yesterday, the University of Calgary announced that there will be a significant revision to the periodic table, a phrasing that implies a radical upheaval of our understanding of basic matter. The reality is quite a bit less dramatic—so tame, in fact, that the publication that announced the revision was released on Sunday without causing any disturbance. But the announcement provides a good opportunity to give everyone a refresher on the whole concept of atomic weight."
