I don't know why, I just clicked and it worked for me. Worked for me too. But hardly worth the bother. This woman apparently was trying to make tipsy toast, but applied the alcoholic spirits to the bread before putting it in the toaster. You also get similar results if you overcook a pop-tart. Here's how you should make tipsy toast and other similar culinary delights: http://www.tipsyculinaryqueen.com/20...nch-toast.html Paul |

Oh well, most likely another tactic of my ISP. Jamie |

I was just eluding to the fact that you could easily rig a toaster to do this. I would use some jellied alcohol spread on the elements and then with a bit of over voltage you could probably get an explosive display like the one in the video. Nothing too technical there. Lenny |
