Conducting Amature Science Experiments  |
| |
| I used to have my computer in my home office (converted dining room). Last week I moved my computer in to the living room, and other than turning the tv on and off a couple of times have had no occasion to go in to that area again. So, today I'm sitting at my computer, typing away, and something is smelling a bit funky. I didn't know what it was. I went to take a nap and forgot about it. When I woke up, I wanted to pay some bills and went to grab a notepad out of my office. That's when I discovered it. I had forgotten that the night I moved my computer, I was drinking a cup of hot chocolate. That cup was still sitting on the table, but it no longer was the color of hot chocolate. It was the color of kermit the frog. Have you ever conducted an amature, in home science project or experiment such as the one I inadvertantly conducted? What did it start out as and what did it end up as? Did you turn it in to penicillin? | | | | | |

| | I left a slab of cheese in the fridge until the edges of it turned into penicillin. This took a lot of willpower, since the cheese was of a fine quantity and it was very tempting not to finish it off. I cannot recall at the moment any other things going wrong other than insects magically appearing in a container of flour, I believe by alchemy, as well it is not that hot enough to turn hot chocolate into kermit the frog. | | | | | | |

| | Growing up my sister would drink and drink apple juice until it was gone. She'd take the glass to her room to read, and... Three months later my mom goes into her room and happens to take a glance at her window sill. Four glasses of apple juice which then could have probably been made into beer. | | | | | | |

| | OMG! LOL... can apple juice "really" turn in to beer? I suck at science so I don't know.... :) | | | |

| | It's not officially beer because I assume there are other steps, but fermented apple juice does lay the basis for the contents of a homemade beer. | | | |

| | I traditionally put 2 nearly-full gallon jugs of apple cider in the lower part of my refrigerator on Thanksgiving... except for opening the caps once a week to release the pressure, I ignore them. Its glorious 'hard' cider by New Years Eve!! | | | |

| | Early on, I had a bag of forgotten potatoes that turned into research on the life-cycle of the fruitfly... I learned that, while they don't live long, they are intensely prolific. We must have had a few hundred generations before they were finally gone... | | | | | | |

| | LOL! People are lazy, Raz. Have you not figured that out? Once when I was in high school, my step father did an experiement on us. He put a tissue in front of a door to see how many times we (my brothers and I) would walk over it before actually picking it up. I know it was there for days, not sure how many. He finally got mad at us for not picking it up and told us what he'd done and why. LOL I thought it was quite funny but he was probably thinking more along your lines. Now of course I see it, but then, I didn't care. Any chance your roommates are 17 year old lazy high school kids??? LOL | | | |

| | LOL too funny. I am sure neither are 17. It baffles me because they both are the type that if there is an empty glass on the table they will pick it up and put it in the sink or dishwasher, even if you have just left it there on your way to the bathroom or to answer the phone as a reminder to refill it when you come back into the room. | | | |

| | I guess but they have to pass my desk when going out that door. Can't see why they would have started to go out the front door and walk around the house just to throw the garbage out or take the cans to the corner on collection day just because I am not here. | | | |
