"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill

A friend told me that Wal-Mart used to carry a really cheap brand of microwave.  With a little modification, and some guts, you could swap some wires on the inside and use the microwave to block out Wi-Fi signals.  

Now THAT'S a Firewall!:lol:

TechTV's Screen Savers mentioned that this was one of the many ways to destroy CD's, along with thier other new gadgets that they showed off.   though the one that looks and functions like an ice crusher, that one is cool.

 
Try the grape thing.  Now that's a particularly peculiar effect.

A Sky One show called Brainiac: Science Abuse ran a regular feature entitled 'things not to put in a microwave'. Items included a baloon of propane and oxygen with a metal spoon taped to it...

There was a guy on The Forum who made a microwave death ray that could destroy electronics from a few hundred yards and injure people at short ranges.

I have about 100 of those microwaves compact discs hanging around my room.  Good use for those "Free AOL" discs.

This site must have jinxed my Microwave. Cause sticking a pizza in, leaves the pizza cold, yet makes the whole top of the micro catch fire.

Wait a minute... NOW I GOT A MICRO I CAN USE FOR EXPERIMENTS!!! :D
I have returned... Again...

If I didn't have to pay for the replacement, I'd be so so tempted to go start making ball lightning :)
