  1. Q: how do you turn a Platypus into a soul singer? A: put it in the microwave until its bill withers.
  2. use a couple of cans for the bottom as well, as seen in the demos. also use a small neon bulb in place of the ball electrodes, these neon bulbs trigger at about 90v so even if a tiny charge is building up you will see it
  3. did you know that a standard LPG Bunsen burned on a Blue flame gives just over .25g of Downwards thrust, and only .06g of thrust on a yellow flame.
  4. Excellent contribution, Thank You I`ve moved this thread into the General Chem area and also made it Sticky.
  5. The secret to a long life! A tough, old cowboy once counseled his grandson that if he wanted to live a long life, the secret was to sprinkle a pinch of gunpowder on his oatmeal every morning. The grandson did this religiously and lived to the age of 110. He left four children, 20 grandchildren, 30 great grandchildren, 10 great great grandchildren and a 50 foot hole where the crematorium used to be.

  11. I heard a classic the other day and apparently it`s quite True! "Bono, the lead singer of the band, U2, is famous throughout the entertainment industry for being more than just a little self-righteous. At a recent U2 concert in Glasgow , Scotland , he asked the audience for total quiet. Then, in the silence, he started to slowly clap his hands, once every few seconds. Holding the audience in total silence, he said into the microphone, "Every time I clap my hands, a child in Africa dies." A voice with a broad Scottish accent from the front of the crowd pierced the quiet. . ... "Well, foockin stop doin it then, ya evil basturd!""
  12. I have to agree also, with the addition that the time taken to learn/understand yours, coupled with the time to Unlearn and then Relearn the correct one would be unwise. better to learn the correct Table First and have it explained Well, than risk later confusion. don`t get me wrong, I have done similar things with the table myself as purely excersize and fun, and there is some merit in your version, but I can`t think of ANY way to really improve the existing Table.
  13. A woman pregnant with triplets was walking down the street when a masked robber ran out of a bank and shot her three times in the stomach. Luckily the babies were OK. The surgeon decided to leave the bullets in because it was too risky to operate. She gave birth to two healthy daughters and a healthy son. All was fine for 16 years, and then one daughter walked into the room in tears. "What's wrong?" asked the mother. "I was taking a tinkle and this bullet came out, replied the daughter. The mother told her it was okay and explained what happened 16 years ago. About a week later the second daughter walked into the room in tears. "Mom, I was taking a tinkle and this bullet came out." Again the mother told her not to worry and explained what happened 16 years ago. A week later her son walked into the room in tears. "It's okay" said the Mom, "I know what happened. You were taking a tinkle and a bullet came out." "No," said the boy, "I was playing with myself and I shot the dog."
  14. the point is to make a lightbulb as outlined in post #1
  15. a man turns to his friend and says, "Hey, you are a Jew aren't you?" response, "well, jew-ish!"
  16. Oh Dear! and there ends my Long Term love affair with my darling Science, I`ve been FOUND OUT!
  17. Try number 2: http://myweb.tiscali.co.uk/yt2095/experiments/bulb2setup.jpg http://myweb.tiscali.co.uk/yt2095/experiments/bulb2on.jpg and so far it`s been lit (as I`m working to Burnout) for 3 hours 22 mins operating at; 1.23A @ 13.19VDC EDIT: 18 hours 2 mins so far! EDIT2: it`s been on now nearly 25 hours, I can`t see it failing anytime soon, so I`m calling it Quits as a trial, it`s evidently out performed my expectations and requirements outlined in the Original Post. so that`s Certainly ONE success thus far, let`s keep stacking them up
  18. my 1`st attempt: http://myweb.tiscali.co.uk/yt2095/experiments/lightbulb1.jpg don`t get too worried, it only lasted 40 seconds before it went Plasma
  19. as in time honored tradition, and to accompany such challenges as the: http://www.scienceforums.net/forum/showthread.php?t=2863 and: http://www.scienceforums.net/forum/showthread.php?t=3907 Now it`s time turn your thinking towards Lightbulbs! The Challenge is make your own Light bulb, it must be powerful enough to read by in a totally dark room, and be powered Electrically (so No flasks of Luminol, or Isotopes or Magnesium Flares!). it must last (giving off book readable light), for a Min of 10 minutes also. you can use whatever Voltage/Current you like AC or DC. Obviously the Less Power and Brighter the Light for that power the Better! Picture (as always) appreciated, along with a write-up detailing the proceedure and results. Best of Luck to all Participants! and keep it SAFE!!!
  20. I noticed an old man watching a teenager sitting next to him. The teenager had spiked hair in all different colors: green, red, orange, and blue. The old man kept staring at him. The teenager would look and find the old man staring every time. When the teenager had enough, he sarcastically asked, "What's the matter old man, never done anything wild in your life?" The old man did not bat an eye in his response, "Got drunk once and had sex with a peacock. I was just wondering if you were my son."
