Reminds me of my high-school days when two friends were doing some
welding with a oxy-acetylene torch. During a break, they decided to
capture a small amount of near-stoichiometric gas mixture in a
sandwich-sized plastic bag, tie off the end, and put a match to it


Wimps... we used to use those plastic clothes bags (which tend to leak
badly, by the way). [Of course, we also melted a small aluminum TV antenna
this way one day... ]

Thinking back on it all, it's very surprising that we survived to what now
passes for adulthood.
