4. One that will dissolve Bush's grip on the presidency, please
It will have to be an aggressive solvent, with added acids and alkalis to make sure it works just the way it should.

Yes, this will be a two-stage solvent system. First, a refreshing wash of high-molar hydrofluoric acid, followed by the soothing effervescence of sodium hydroxide solution.

The reaction will be...

HF + Bush = a big pot of HF with a scum of Bush on top

Then HF + NaOH = NaF + H2O

Add to the nation's fresh water supply, improve our children's strong bones and teeth, and get rid of Dubya all in two reactions. How can ya go wrong?

5. Make the one that dissolves styrofoam peanuts...
Edited on Sun Jun-20-04 09:58 PM by BrotherBuzz
I always enjoyed seeing how many cubic feet of them I could melt in a quart jar. Now, if I can just figure how to reconstitute the toxic mess back into peanuts, I might have something marketable. Is there a solvent that will do that?
