Now that's where you're wrong. The cooker ignition circuit was
developed
(along with PTFE) by NASA scientists for lighting Saturn 5 rockets
from
a
distance after they had several failures with the "light blue touch
paper
and retire to a safe distance"
It's untrue, BTW, that Teflon came out of the Apollo program. PTFE was
actually discovered accidentally by Roy Plunkett at DuPont in 1938.
No, really ?
Is that where they first learned to extract urea
Just pointing out a popular misconception. No need to get sarcy.
After a while you will get to know that Maxie has problems. You have to
treat him nicely.
