  Haha. It's fantastic. I want to know where I can buy some to play with.  <333 (Yeah, so we got to fool around with liquid nitrogen in the lab today. xD It was awesome.) On another note, I get back to China on the 11th! And school starts on the 12! This is going to be fun! |

Liquid Nitrogen is my favourite thing science-y I do believe. I like what it does to flowers. I wish I could play with it.
There's also some form of... gun powder stuff shit stuff that can burn through anything, including titanium. It's obviously not gun powder but I don't know what else it's called.

Liquid nitrogen is awesome, I love it.
I don't think you can buy it. On account of the danger... I guess you could become a scientist and play with it all the time.

My personal favorite is lithium.

Liquid lithium or just lithium? *google images* xD I think my favorite element is arsenic. Or antimony. >>

liquid nitro is awesome.  we splashed a tray of it onto the floor in physics class. |

Lithium makes a very big boom when you put it in water. Or pretty much anything, actually.

Terribly written but I assume that is how to make some kind of... dry ice-cream type thing? Like the ones you sell at Space Museums?

No, no, no. It's normal ice cream, they just use liquid nitrogen to freeze it very quickly without an ice cream machine.

But how hard and how expensive is it to get your hands on a liquid nitrogen? Compared to getting an ice cream machine?
You would like this show, Roller Coaster. It's one of those shows that go in between cartoon segments. The guy who hosts it is awesome, and they have this segment called Slow-Mo. Its where Professor Slow and Doctor Mo do science-y things, then reply them in "Us Mode" (Slowmo). They use a lot of liquid nitrogen xD

You don't do it yourself, it's an ice cream parlor. *prods the link above the photo*
I thought you'd think it was cool and want to go to Chicago. xD

That sounded like a recipe.
Ehh, I'd be more excited if it was that dry ice cream stuff. (The proper name of which continues to elude me)

Freeze-dried ice cream just takes normal ice cream and removes the water.

I don't care how it's made, just that it isn't sold here xP
