Today is Tuesday, April 15th, 2003-- and I've yet to read
"Mad Professor". But if it's got the Frauenfelder tag on it, it's got to be gold!!!!

When you mix iodine and ammonia and some other stuff you have a very unhappy compound. called nitrogen triodine, very reactive when dry/damp

A hero is someone who gives his, or her own life for another's benefit. Such as throwing oneself atop a handgrenade to save the life of another. Or, such as those who rushed into the Twin Towers to render aid to those in need, knowing that they were most likely sacrificing their lives for the good of others. But the Shuttle Columbia astronauts?, no way they were hero's. They were volunteers. They knew the risks. They didn't intentionally sacrifice themselves for the benefit of others. They were astronauts because of the money and the adventure, not sacrifice. True they are unfortunate victims of NASA safety practices, but that doesn't make them hero's.

See "Space Shuttle Safety" under new topic.

You have corrupted me my friend! Saw the book for sale in Denver Discovery Channel Store. Took out small plastic continer w/snap on lid filled with small amount of baking soda and wad of toilet paper, added vinegar, quickly repalced lid, caused tiny fizzy explosion, yelled "I know the Mad Professor!" ran out of store

And I thought you were referring to THE Mad Professor.
No Dub here folks, move along, move along.....

Dear Uncle Mark,

I'd like to know what happens when you mix iodine and ammonia.

We bought your book after seeing the ad on
www.boingboing.net. This weekedn my 8-yr. old grandson
is having a great time with various experiments. We cleaned
out a small shed and turned it into a "Science & Engineering Lab" used with your book.

Thanks!

Great! I'm so glad you and your son are liking it.

We received our copy yesterday and my 5-year-old loves it! He read the "robot food" chapter while waiting for his dad to pick out stuff at the auto parts store. Then he wanted me to read him the part about polymers for bedtime. Now we are talking about atoms. a lot. Thank you! What a great approach to science.

Robot Food? That would be oil, wouldn't it?
We are discussing Silence Friction after all...

Mark,

My kids love the book (gave it to them for Xmas). Congrats. I hope it outsells anything that Rush Limbaugh ever did. I'll write you a good review on Amazon as soon as I'm sure that the kids don't mutate or anything after the experiments.

just bought the book for my cousin today mark - it's great!

Thanks! You know, I could really use a review on Amazon.com. I would be so grateful if you could write on there.

Just send a standard sized envelope. Thanks again!

            Best -- Mark

Mark, your book is excellent, I love it. As soon as I can prise it out of my girlfriend's hands, I'll be able to finish it, but I really like the story behind the experiments.

Thank you, it's easily the coolest book that I have read in months.

How big should the stamped addressed envelope be?

Thanks for buying it! Let me know how you like it.

My copy arrived this AM in the mail. Can't wait until lunchtime to read it. The 'feel' of the paper stock is very nice...

Wow Mark, cool beans! I've got a couple of nieces who are just the right age for this. The subject seems like a great fit for your illustration style, too. Looking forward to getting it.

Hey Mark, I do illustration work as well and often wondered how I would go about publishing a childrens book. Any suggestions or comments? You can always email me at crackbaby@crackbaby.com (yes thats my real email)

Excellent -- thanks!

Nice, Mark!
I think a couple of niece's & nephews will be getting this for X-mas.

What ages is it appropriate for, Mark?

Natch.

Has it got the borax + elmer's?
