So Sammy, how many grade schoolers do you think are here to watch your 
stupid tricks? Or is this your level of science understanding? I loved 
that fact that "physics girl" is so incompetent an experimentalist that 
she can't even pour LN2 on the candle without first sloshing nitrogen 
gas on the flame putting it out before the LN2 gets there. Obviously she 
is planning on being a theoretical physicist.  Might as well have 
Boinker or Starfaker doing this film.

Hey, HVAC you should watch this! Science at your level with no ghosts or 
ESP being studied!

-------------------------

That paragraph has a spoiler right in the tease.

I would join in, however, on the polite calls for you to moderate your own posts.
I would suggest that every person who is on usenet is already out of high school, which is the age group targeted in this type of article.

Thx in advance

why so polite, HVAC?
Aren't you supposed to say something like: "How about toning down the 
stupid posts you child molesting kook...no offense"

I guess Sammy as a "denier denter" is one of your propaganda colleagues.

   There is nothing weird about pinching it with one's fingers.
   Wet your fingers first then you won't be running around ouching.
