......Another use for all that Aluminium swarf....
Is to mix it with salt peter and ignite it at the next star party 
you attend..... Your very own home made QSO..!!!
.....And for those of you that have kiddies that are hard to
impress with mere Quasar intensity devices, you might 
like have a dabble with magnesium powder & potassium
permangenate.... (How good is your medical insurance ? )
..... I have no doubt that your home made "GRB" will gain the
undivided attention of all attendies at the next TSP.....
