And if you're into doing some crazy science experiments, try
dumping an entire pack of Mentos into a newly opened 2-liter
bottle of soda -- OUTDOORS!  (Diet soda is usually better --
the resulting mess is less sticky.)  For the most impressive
results, you need to design a delivery system that will smoothly
dump the entire stack of Mentos in less than a second.  (Like
the yield on a fission bomb, bad timing leads to a bit of a
fizzle.)  ;-)  --Rob
