The "not ionized" term would be hyphenated.
In ALL cases.
If it isn't, the term is UNIONized, as in the latter definition.
ionized = having a union un-formed (Wisconsin)

The lack of understanding of this is rampant among you last three generations of twits coming out of the colleges all over the world, not just here. That's since the late seventies.

Hmmm.... Who should I believe in this case: Isaaac Asimov who holds a PhD in Biochemistry and who has written so many books and articles over his lifetime that they are practically a library in and of themselves and nearly uncountable, or some guy called Soothsayer who wants to set himself up as an authority on the hypenation of certain words?
Thanking.... Thinking... Crickets chirping...

You're a goddamned retard for even asking for a citation, as well as for being too stupid to simply know that I am right.
I thought as much.

Lefties are all about how they feel, not about the facts of the matter.
The irony here is that you're addressing Gunner, who just claimed that the debt run up under Obama is "5 times" that of all other presidents preceding him -- while the fact is that just the last three Republicn presidents, alone, ran it up by 5 times more than Obama.
Either you're writing to the arithmetically challenged, or your point should be expanded to include wingers of both sides. The farther one moves from the center, the loonier one gets.
I tried to find Gunners statement about the debt run up under Obama and could not find it in this thread.

It was in the "OT-Taxing the rich" thread, this past Saturday:
Here are the actual numbers:
It would, if those were the real numbers. Debt under Obama, up to Mar. 31, is $2.361 T.
(If anyone is using the Wikipedia data I linked to before, there is a mistake in it -- or it was an estimate done some time ago. At the end of Bush's last budget, Wikipedia says that the debt was $10.413 T. Although Wikipedia's other data in the table agrees with Treasury, this figure does not. Treasury says it's $11.909 T)
Thanks.

Well,that one was way to easy, probably these slightly related follow ups are also:
Another one from an Asimov story, a Russian visitor to the US who can barely understand English is complaining about how horribly crime ridden and immoral the US is. Why, he was just sitting in the park and a couple fellow park patrons, upon learnig he could not speak English (at all as they apparently thought), immediately began cheerfully discussing their fiendish plot to abduct and murder a whole bunch of people, at least nineteen! But the guest was slightly mistaken as to what he was hearing. What could these semi-fiends have been talking about? Bonus points if you can name any of the individual victims without looking anything up. I sure can't.
One morer: You are given a one word nerdiness test, read the word and define it. "Persuade" is the failing answer. What is the word?

And how many years of Bush the lesser and how many years of Obummer does those numbers represent?
I'm assuming you know how to measure time. Here's a question for you: Where were the fiscal conservatives while Reagan, GHW Bush and GW Bush were running up $11,909 Trillion dollars in national debt? Did they just suddenly learn how to count when Obama entered office?
And what were those three doing running deficits while the economy was humming along? There are good reasons to run deficits when you're in a recession, but I never heard of one for running deficits while the GDP is rising. That's why they called Reagan the Amiable Dunce. GW Bush was even more clueless.
