Chemistry Experiments


Scientists must experiment and kids will have fun!
Yes, the CPSC, your local city nannycrats and the narcothugs work hard to keep you from learning chemistry, shooting off fireworks and stopping your runny nose. In spite of these ill conceived efforts a little ingenuity and a trip to your local supermarket or convenience store can get you plenty of explosive goodies!
For instance here is what you can achieve with some Diet Coke and Mentos Mints. If they try to stop ya, well, just spray in their face.
How soon do you think the swat teams will be coming for these guys or for you? If you think never then perhaps you should consider Patri’s thoughts on the subject.
