I just got some caulk from the garage, a new tube of silicone. It was

the
future ........ could I heat it up in the microwave?

I think it'd either get too hot or not hot at all -- or something in the
packaging would fry, and damage the caulk.

Chuck it in a tub of hot water.

Didn't EVEN think of that. Sat it on the stove for a couple of minutes, and
pulled and rotated it. Got it to where it would flow. Need me one of them
there fancy electricital caulking guns. Someone once asked what they were
good for over standard guns. I have a new answer. To run cold caulk. Hard
on the wrists otherwise.
