weird science

So, just got back from "Science Night" at the school where lovely wife teaches and lovely daughter is a student. This is basically a "show off the science fair projects" event with a few hands-on workshops included. Unsurprisingly, the most popular workshop was the one where the kids (under very close supervision) built compressed-air cannon to shoot baby carrots and potato plugs. What fun!

(I took notes for the next time I have the opportunity to do something like this. ;)
