PERIODIC DOMAIN NAMES

Several folks submitted categories having to do with the periodic table (and you'll probably see at least one more before the summer ends), but this one is just brilliant. Congrats to Ivan. Well done, sir.

Each correct response will be a two-letter symbol of the element described in the clue and the Internet domain of the country described. Example: The traditional 50th Anniversary gift, and a country that has 2 sheep and 16 rabbits per person would be Au, for gold and Australia. Remember, we want the symbol.

2: CL

4: CU

6: The second-most abundant element in the Earth's crust, and the first piece of the former Yugoslavia to officially join the Eurozone.

8: Iridium??

10: An element that can be added to glass to give it a green color and the country where the world's only freshwater sharks live.

I've got some hunches for the 6 & 10-pointers, but not nearly certain enough to WAG. Too rich for my blood.

3: no clue.....

6: Carl Sandburg

9: If I had been living in Texas in 1979, I might have...um, oh wait, I WAS living in Texas in 1979. Still no clue....

12: no clue, since "clam" is not a vehicle.

15: Penny-farthing (from somewhere in my deep memory banks...hope this guess isn't a laugher)

Man, where is this stuff coming from?
