Eric warned us of exactly the dangers you mentioned,
especially using plastic containers. I didn't say
anything about the details but your cautions are very
important. Anything that looks that cool seems to
always be dangerous in some way. I teach elementary
school and I won't even be showing the demo to the
Kebler elves at my school for fear they will figure
out how I did it and inspire pyromania among the
little people. Putting a few strips of fiber tape
around the bottle seems to be a good idea. Eric had
us wear goggles while doing the experiment. Having
said all that the "whoosh" experiment, as you call it,
has gone to the top of the list of "most exciting,
simple demos" for me. Yeeha!
With firm handshake,
Raleigh
