Lava is dangerous

[RoddyVR]

ye, i always assumed that it had molten rock in that thing and that the liquid around it was somethink like Liquid Nitrogen but the other way (realy hot, not realy cold).

RoddyVR, I assume you'd power that with your own nuclear power plant, would you?

As the owner of a lava lamp, I have two things to add to this:

1) There is a warning in the usage/assembly instructions against using other devices to heat the lava tube.

2) He may have been trying to melt the little globs of wax that seperate from the main glob and stick to the sides, reducing the asthetic value of the lamp as a whole. I had considered trying to free up those bits of wax, but having read the warning labels, and, you know, some science books, I knew about Boyle's Law.

I will say this; I have decided that I will leave well enough alone insofar as my lava lamp goes.

Here as well. Please let me know if you discover anything that will overcome Boyle's Law in this circumstance.

And my first thought was that Bill Nye has turned to assassination to supplement his income.

That's almost as bad as being shot by the snake whose head you are trying to crush.

Speaking of people doing stupid things, one of the most bizarre things I ever saw was on Jay Leno's show, the part where he shows strange/odd/stupid articles, advertisements and such. There was this article from some newspaper (excellent source, no? ) that a man accidently shot himself in the foot (or leg? nevermind) while he was out hunting for mushrooms.

1) There are a dozen/hundreds/thousands/zillions of other thread around where you can bash Bush. Don't do it here.

2) I guess a person as liberal as you will never admit that Bush can't be wrong.

3) Excuse me while I puke

4) Sims suck

Have I gotten all the typical Conservative response to a post similar to the one above?

Apparently you missed the article I posted. Here it is again: link!

It's clearly Bush's fault.

Apparently the lack of a warning label is the reason for this... tradgedy.

I though this particular nugget of information in the news report was the reason:

was found dead in his trailer home on Sunday night in Kent, about 15 miles south of Seattle.

 

[GEChallenger]

good point.

1) Your sarcasm detector needs new batteries.

My sarcasm detector plugs into the wall and it works just fine. I think it's yours that needs fixing.

No, I saw it.
