simple chemistry in python

[baoilleach]

If you are familiar with parsing XML, much of the data you need is
stored in the following file:
http://bodr.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/*checkout*/bodr/trunk/bodr/elements/elements.xml?revision=34&content-type=text%2Fplain

This file is part of the Blue Obelisk Data Repository, an effort by
several chemistry software developers to share common information. If
you have any further questions, please email blueobelisk-
