Back from Ulsan [OT]
« on: March 30, 2008, 03:19:31 AM »
Eunsuk and I went to Ulsan for the weekend to visit her folks. I regret to say that I couldn't find any Japanese Wintergreen at the open market- it's the last ingredient I need for home-made root beer, and it's apparently available sometimes, somewhere. Her father suggested that I try the herbal medicine shops in Daegu. I'll probably do that next weekend.

There have been a lot of posts this weekend; I don't think I'll be able to reply to everything tonight, but I'll see what I can do.

Yesterday I taught my first gifted class. It was really good, except for the fact that it was a seven (classroom) hour day. Today I'm exhausted and sore.

Happy April Fool's day, by the way.

So, wait, was that an April Fool's joke? Wait... gifted... seven hour day... Yeah, it's probably not.

Have a good April 1st.

Nope. I wish it was an April Fool's Day joke... truth is, I don't even have an April Fool's Day joke. I was thinking of posting something outrageous here, but... don't have the energy...

You may wanna look here for your carbonation experiments. Don't know if it will help any, though.

http://www.truetex.com/carbonation.htm

I recall that you can get a pseudo-effect with dry ice, but you'd have to use a punch bowl, or other object with open top (not a soda bottle), to keep it from having unwanted concussive force. Resulting in shreds of material used in the brewing bottle and flying drops of liquid and dry ice (at whatever chosen state).

Thanks for the link. I'll have a look at that.
