The idea was to fill the pizza pan with salt water (representing the ocean) and by heating it up via the lightbulb (representing the Sun), a small vortex (Coriolis Effect and EVERYTHING!) was created inside the cabinet. It was barely perceptable, so they introduced a small amount of smoke (lit cigarette - it was the '60s - Don't smoke, kids - this is SCIENCE!) to make it more visible. They could really get that little thing crankin'. Of course as soon as anyone opened the door to the cabinet, it disturbed the delicate balance and the small-scale hurricane went POOF!

i love it!

I guess that's why half the super seniors in my building are hobbling around today saying "thars a storma comin'". Gee, I love it down South. My spineometer says we will have rain late tonight. The spine quiets down by the time the storm arrives. You know you need to get a better life when you and your friends sit around on the veranda and take bets on what time the storm will hit and who has the most accurate spineometer.

A big YES! And I do have RSD, but I think it is related to the inflammation. We have been having constantly changing weather here in Chicago the last few weeks, with rain every other or every couple days, and this means the pressure has been changing left and right. And boy are my legs and wrist irritated. The pain from the barometric changes, I've found, is slightly different so I can tell that's what it is right away. It's more achy. I can predict the weather better than the forecasts can!

The best thing I've found to help it is moist heat. And of course turning my SCS up higher for the legs. But you should be better at least while you're in Mexico, because in warmer climates like that the pressure is more constant.

We used to say we knew when we'd arrived at middle age because conversations began to center around medical conditions and the numbers and kinds of supplements we were taking.

...And someone would wonder why the kids were all in the other room playing video games...
