Nah, that's quite cool. My nieces won't eat it, though.

Someone who has a B80 in a museum contacted me on this list a while ago
about some materials I want to get rid of. Alas, I can't easily find
that reply now, so would you please contact me again off-list.
My apologies...

That'd be the 5400 and 5500 IIRC.

Yes, PS/2 keyboard/mouse uses the same mini-DIN, but the wiring is
completely different.
Thanks for the URL...

Sounds about right. Depends on the concentration and temperature, of
course, and also the fact that NaOH readily absorbs CO2 from the
atmosphere, turning into Na2CO3 (sodium carbonate, washing soda) which
doesn't have much effect on aluminium. In fact, NaOH and KOH are so good
at that, that they're used in atmospheric scrubbers.

But the drinking part and eating part, and indeed most other parts needn't
only be annual. Only the Burn's Night title part is annual :-) Um, you do
have to listen to bagpipes, though, if it's Burn's Night.

Cleaning isn't the issue- deglazing is. Rubber rollers become
glazed on their surface, and whether it's from picking up dirt
and dust or because the rubber simply fuses chemically at the
surface I don't know. But traditionally, cerbon tetrachloride
was used for this purpose. I also used it to highlight watermarks
in vintage postage stamps.

Never tried that, but I used to get a medium chocolate, and a medium
stawberry, and drink them together (one straw from each to my mouth),
that was always pretty good.
I will have to dunk my fries the next time (and to think, I was just
about to get Mc D's for lunch, but at the last minute pulled into the
popeye's drive thru instead.)
