Experimentation
George: hey
David: HI
David: this is my one chance to shake off that chronic cold ive been having
David: its quite insane...ive gotten sick pretty much every fortnight since december
George: lol i have a bad cough right now
George: ick i hate perpetual sickness
David: thats not good
David: yea
David: i blame it on "stress"
George: lol and i blame THAT on teachers
David: exactly
David: heh
David: so dammit daylight savings time
George: yeah i know
George: it's a japanese conspiracy to take over the world
David: oh
David: well, that explains a lot and absoultely nothing at the same time
David: japenese always looking for someway to take over the world...
David: but how the hell does daylight savings benefit them?>
George: b/c they make digital clocks hard to adjust
George: so americans spend so much time fixing the time
George: and boom, the japanese attack w/o anyone noticing
David: oh
David: i was thinking more along the lines of japenese business men not wasting time resetting their clocks, unlike their american counterparts.
George: lol
David: which will give them a financial advantage
George: true
David: i figured the japanese learned brute force didnt work the hard way back in ww2
David: ohhh
David: i have grapes
David: yummy
David: my pyrotechnic tendencies are about to be satisfied
George: o.O that was terribly random
George: wha? how???
David: u spend a lot of time on the internet doncha?
George: lol yeah kinda
George: now i have a home network it helps
David: its all over the web!
George: b/c i can just leave the internet on
George: what is?
David: grapes halves attached by the skin catch fire in the microwave!
George: wth??? lol!
David: if i had a digital camera i could show you
David: but damn! i dont
George: lol ok
David: so anyways, ill brb
George: kk
David: w00t that was fun!
David: lets do it again!
George: ............
David: eventually ill work my way up to microwaving a cd
David: maybe
George: what happens then? explosion?
David: grapes are more fun because you can eat them
David: no
George: hahahahaha
David: the aluminum vaporizes and the voltage created by the microwaves cause a hell bunch of sparks inbetween the vaporized aluminium
David: its really awesome
David: and u can make plasma when u stick a flame in the microwave too
David: the fun things u can do with high power 2.4 ghz waves are endless
George: david, this is why you should never be left alone
David: hehehe
David: i also have potasium nitrate smoke bombs
David: stashed away
David: in my backyard
George: david........
David: some ppl hide drugs, i hide explosives
George: hahaha yeah that's *totally* different
David: if u didnt have doubts that i was a pyro before...
David: hmm
George: lol i had no doubt
George: i'm one
George: but not that extreme
David: i think how the grapes work is that it creates a voltage difference between the two halves which go thru the grape skin, causing it to burn
David: or maybe the grape skin doesnt do anything
George: icic
David: except contribute carbon to make nice YELLOW sparks and a nice burning smell
George: maybe the skin is the conductor btwn the two halves?
George: O_O
David: maybe
David: but the voltage might be so big that it will arc
David: see? im applying science to this!
George: ahahahahahahahahaha
George: tell shales about this :-P
David: lol
David: shed prbly never let me into the lab again
David: i tihnk what ill try now is cutting the grapes NOT in half
George: lol
David: to possibly create a bigger voltage difference
David: lets try it!
David: dammit! it didnt even spark!
George: umm....i *wonder* why....
David: ok im peeling off grape skin to stick in microwave'
David: nope
David: nothing
David: im fairly certain now that it is because of the capicitative properties of the two grapes now
George: lol
David: so now im going to sprinkle salt on it
David: hehehe
George: >.<
David: what?
David: it makes sense!
George: hahaha
David: se? im applying chemistry into this
George: you are ridiculous
George: let me know if you die so i can call 911
David: ok
David: holy shit!
David: that was awesome!
David: yea!
George: o good lord.......
George: what happened?
David: i mean DAMN!
David: it sparked...a LOT!
George: ROTFLMAO!
David: isn't it nice when u are right?
George: of course
George: wow david, where are your parents??
David: mmm salty grapes
George: ew
David: umm good question
David: ok that could be taken the wrong way
David: salty grapes
George: LMAO
David: ok ok
David: now what i have to do is space grapes apart 6cm for maximum voltage differential
George: alright
George: and salted?
David: that wont work tho...cuz even if i could stretch the skin that far it would prbly become to resistive at that point to burn
David: damn
David: what i need to do is put little peices of aluminum foil on top of the salted grape
George: no david, no
David: like an antenna
David: ohhh!
George: uh oh...
David: ill stick a 3 cm peice of wire into each grape half!@
David: see this is where amateur radio knowledge comes in handy
David: figuring out how to make a grape spark the most
David: ok that sounds ridiculously stupid
George: yes, it does
George: now to find the use for this crap
David: umm
David: grape skin explosive?
George: lol.....
George: what would happen if u used a fermented grape?
David: oh, and another thing that suports my theory of grape skin burning=sparks is that they spark more if i put them face up
David: umm
David: alcohol is conductive isnt it?
George: yesh, it is also combustable :-P
David: muahahaha excellent
David: How to blow up a winery:
George: O_O bad david!
David: jk
David: u know i wouldnt do that...
George: uh huh right...
David: but i will stick 1/4 wave resonant antennas into grapes just to watch tem fry
George: wow.......
David: myabe i should make it 1/2 wave....after all, its not as if its going to be big
David: i think tgis is the point where i shut up
George: lol no continue
David: oh u find this amusing eh?
George: highly
David: well im glad i brought out the pyro in george
George: nah i've always been one
David: oh
David: how about if we replace the grapes with 2 glasses of NaCl soln?
David: and stretch out some grape skin inbetween them
George: hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha
David: when u mix fire with science the results aren't pretty
David: lets try it!
David: lol
David: i need a camera
David: i rally wish i could show u some of this stuff
David: ok here's the new plan:
David: copper penny on each grape half
David: god i hope my mom doesnt come home right as im doing it
George: hahahahahahaha
George: yeah really
George: you'd be dead meat
David: yea
David: you know what?
David: screw grapes
George: LOL
David: lets just stick 2 copper pennys next to each other and...
David: shit my mom came home
George: DAVID! NO!!!!!
George: ROTFLMAO
David: so much for the exploration of highly dangerous RF
George: LOL yeah really
David: that will cause the blood vessels in my eyes to rupture if im exposed to them...
David: isnt that a pretty sight?
David: the blood in ur eyes just vaporizing
David: *poof*
David: make u think twice before u play with a microwave
George: lol
David: (yea right)
George: how about a hamster + microwave + 20 min
David: umm
David: that would overheat the magnetron
George: heh
David: and the microwave would melt into a pudle
David: unless it has some safety switch in ti
David: *it
George: heh
David: notice how my mom came home just as i was going to try the really dangerous experiment
David: or at least slightly more dangerous
David: right well im off to do something slightly more sane
George: lol
David: ciao
George: bai
