I agree, uchiacon, but I do learn/ remember my Chemistry through it. I have been in the IEEE and seen videos on demolition, CDI etc; all say what a "rush" to push the button.
Yet, I sent my resumes to a few explosives/blasting co's., and at least One was very unfriendly--it seemed like if you even
hinted at liking working with explosives, they'd try to send your name to the FBI! Needless to say, I wrote them back in no uncertain terms about their attitude...
They are not getting me, so they won't know what they are missing. Lamos--why do people get into it if they don't want to "feel the rush"?

Some fool on Ask.Com said how great RogueSci was; how Megalo was a "PhD"--bull. If he had read the rules; "PhD" is merely a rank, corresponding to how many posts. If anyone there was really a PhD; he would be too busy at work to post much--maybe on weekends. Just Chem. Techs are really hirable, now, and at $24k per year to start.
Megalo used to quote right out of Wiki and 60-yo books, word-for-word...then expect us to try it. (Some didn't work--!)
I could no longer get on that site to correct this as it was closed--some many votes for "best answer"; and that's it...even if the answer is bull.
RogueSci was whining bad for money just before the last shutdown. They had a lot of good 'dope on it. If they would have just cooled their jets, I would have given them my two coppers, also.
