Miscellaneous #3:  Transition Metals of the Periodic Table

The names of the 40 transition metal elements of the Periodic Table are hiding across, down, backwards, and diagonally in the grid.  Each name is preceded by its Atomic Number and Atomic Symbol, although those are not hidden in the puzzle.  For more information on the elements of the periodic table, visit www.webelements.com.  The remaining letters will spell out a quote about the puzzle.  Print out and enjoy!

*Note: This puzzle was originally created using the Word Search Construction Kit instead of by hand like I normally do.  After some thought, I decided to post it for everyone's enjoyment.  Check out the great WSKit program if you want to make your own word searches for educational purposes, newsletters, or any other reason!
