Because it has a very high lattice enthalpy as a result of it's relatively high charge density, therefore it is very thermally stable i.e. it has a very high melting point.
You could use potassium, rubidium or caesium. However, there is no practical reason why you would do this. You'd have to do it in the melt, which would be hazardous, as all these metals react with water.
look on matweb.com. It really depends on your needs. Do you need somehting with a high yield strength, or a high ultimate strength? In general though, unless there is some very specific reason to use magnesium, it's not generally used. It's more expensive than aluminum, and is a fire hazard.
When things burn, they are just rapidly oxidising, so the Magnesium, since it is highly reactive, can ignite without any external fuels, or without it being in a compound. The reaction for this oxidisation is: 2 Mg + O2 = 2MgO. The reason we use 2 magnesium atoms, is because the oxygen in the air is, like the majority of elemental gases, is found in the elemental form.
Because of the law of conservation of mass/matter. Matter is neither created nor destroyed in a chemical reaction, but it is rearranged so that the combined mass of the reactants is equal to the combined mass of the products.
its a liquid because its compressed and the reason that it is cold is because it has to move from liquid to gas, this movement takes energy and this energy comes from itself.

There is no reason to use magnesium in light bulbs. Magnesium readily and easily catches fire and burns -- white hot.
Magnesium does oxidize. That is why magnesium is often found on earth with a thin layer of Magnesium Oxide (MgO). For this reason when using magnesium in experiments you must always sand it to remove the oxide layer.
No. Please contact your health care provider for a prescription for the chlamydia, as well as to make sure you understand the reason and procedure for taking magnesium oxide.
No, aluminum does not react with magnesium oxide (MgO) under normal conditions. Both aluminum and magnesium oxide are stable compounds, and they do not undergo a chemical reaction when in contact with each other.
All neutrons have a negative charge. That is the reason they are called neutrons.
Theres no reason not to so I suggest you start now..

they were uncomfortable with such a controversial topic

I suggest that the main reason is that they love the subject.
