Ever Frozen Your Tongue to a Spoon?
When I was young (how many decades ago?) I once went to the freezer, opened a box of ice cream (probably Breyers), dug a spoon deep inside, and put the spoon on my tongue.
Was I shocked! I couldn't take it off! It's funny what can scare you, isn't it?

Science was Fun in Ben Franklin's Day
I am a degreed chemist. I took post-degree, graduate level courses at the University of Virginia. I much enjoy science!

Blasting a rocket to the moon with one huge force of energy vrs. puslating intermittent bursts of energy.
It takes too much energy to launch a huge rocket who's payload is almost 75 percent fuel to propel that fuel included in the base bulk weight of the entire rocket would make it have to use far more energy to reverse thrust itself into a slow orbit around t
