@OyVeey Hi... Not everyone listens so closely... Added an extra caption later which is clearly redundant for keen observers like yourself... Hope it did not spoil your viewing too much.
I'd say something about sarcasm being lowest form of wit, but think I may have just been guilty of it myself!

@Gmc42082 that's transplatinum, where the ligands are opposite, rather than adjacent, when coordinately bonded to the platinum

@IAmAVeryFatMan The bottom of the Grand Canyon, while being a mile or more down, are still not the lowest point in North America (blasted Colorado Plate upthrust). No, if you want low -- REALLY low -- I'd suggest perhaps 260 or so miles due west (avoid Las Vegas if at all possible if you value your valuables). Follow the signs to Death Valley. I'd advise planning your trip there during the winter months, however, since it's not called 'Death Valley' because of its boring scenery.

Congratulations for fighting cancer!

isn't there a type of this platinum that isn't active for cancer? i remember this from high school chem. they were teaching us about how the shape of a molecule can change how it behaves.

"higher up, or lower down"
(just taking my comment to the extreme, as i hope you might do in your travels)
Bottom of the Grand Canyon (innit a mile or so deep?)
Death Valley (extremely hot)
Antarctica (or a meat freezer :D ) (extremely cold)
In a weightless environment (that jumbo jet, "The Vomit Comet", makes a feeling of weighlessness)
