Every Day

I know blogs are supposed to be every day, but I go for quality over quantity. You would not want to read what I think about every day. I would, but I don't know anyone like me.

Random item:
Dynamite is not the same as TNT. TNT is trinitrotoluene. (tri-nitro-toluene). Dynamite is Alfred Nobel's invention. It is Fullers Earth with nitroglycerin. Fullers Earth is a kind of diatomaceous earth: the fine silica (silicon dioxide) sand like material composed of the skeletons of diatoms: microscopic plankton that live in the ocean. It can soak up a lot of nitroglycerin, and it makes it pretty stable. Both are really good at blowing stuff up, but they are not the same.
