Alright...try this one on for size. How about a new method of propulsion? Replace the text on this sign with "Rocketeers Strike Back."

Gentlebeings, before Eugene gets you all excited, I encourage you to visit the following site and review the hazards of what he suggests. Frankly I'd rather light off a cluster of N motors using an acetylene torch while suffering a tequila hangover than mess with this fuel

For the love of it all please refer here for the hazards:

And remember those of you not certified in the use of Klein volumeless containers, could not use DHMO anyway.

Well, we could always refer them to the question of, "How many sides are there to a Mobius strip?" Or, "How many edges are there on a Mobius strip?"

Oh thanks

Now we are going to have to regulate streamer material as the paradox potentials may result in an a premature implosion of the adminisphere....

I think I may need to contact the EPA about having my house declared a Superfund cleanup site. Every time we have a heavy rainstorm, I get DHMO seeping into my basement!!!!

:eek: I work in a spent DHMO reclamamtion facility. We have two lagoons each 4 acres by 7 ft. deep and we are just stockpiling the stuff! It equates to millions of gallons! Its evaporating into the air at an alarming rate. Our best strategy is to remove the particulates and other impurities and then dump NEARLY PURE DHMO into the federaly designated wild and scenic Lamprey River! I'll probably disappear after leaking this shocking information but such is the life of a whistle blower!:rolleyes:

I have a two stage water rocket now - just packed it up. It goes about 800' on a good day - chemical deployment of a parchute. I've got plans for a three stager (evil grin here). It will consist of this 3x 3 Litre bottles, 2x 2 Litre bottles, 1x 20oz bottle. The 3 3 litres will be connected as well as the 2 two litres. The bottom stage will contain about 4 litres of water, the second stage about 1.5 litres and the top stage about 8 ounces. It will be pumped to 100 psi. I'm planning on rolling it out mid summer - I have a better stage coupler up my sleeve.
