YeahEven Lawrencium262 (103) decays rapidly, I'de hate to think what the half-life of anything bigger would be.

There's reckoned to bean island of stability at about 116, IIRC.
That is, nuclear physicists predict that element would not decay rapidly. May be wrong with the number though.

Its around 112, near enough...And while things there decal less rapidly than expected, the half lives are still in the second range (rather than the millisecond range predicted). Uub 285 has a half life of half a minute according to wiki, and thats the most stable by at least a factor of 10 after meinerium (109)
