BMT,
It's tempting. Let's see where the economy goes...
As for getting bored with my job, that's unlikely. The 10lb package of powdered aluminum I ordered just showed up.

I'm supposed to find a way to polymer-coat the stuff to delay it's reactivity. I suspect this will take a lot of testing, probably end up using 50-100 pounds of the aluminum before the project is completed.
