Ban lava lamps! They're evil and they kill people.

I have a plasma lamp, I wonder what would happen if I up the power by a factor of ten?

You know, if I hadn't once started to jump-start my Lava Lamp in the microwave, I might be in a position to be critical of this guy...
Long story... But suffice it to say the door of a microwave oven is surprisingly strong!

I feel terrible about this. I don't think he was stupid at all...it was a tragic accident. I sure he wasn't thinking the thing was going to blow up in his face. It scares the heck out of me because I have a teenage son who does things like this all the time.. he's way to curious and wants to know how everything works..God Bless his family.

"Kent (WA) Man Killed By Exploding Lava Lamp" Should read:
Man Killed by Own Stupidity
The Lava Lamp was only a tool, he was going to kill himself one way or another... eventually.

"Philip has been a kid who tinkers with things ever since he was little," a grieving Claudia Quinn told KOMO 4 News Monday night after her son's bizarre and tragic death.
Sunday, 24-year-old Philip Quinn was tinkering with a lava lamp at his home in Kent. 
This guy keeps coming to mind.

...heated only by a small lightbulb, 40 watts in most cases, a lava lamp is essentially harmless: a mix of wax or oil and water sealed in a glass bottle with a small air space at the top of the bottle to allow for the liquid to expand under heat. Is THAT all there is to it??!
When I think of the hours wasted... back in college - just watching and wondering, awestruck at the technical marvel that captivated my imagination and took me to places far, far away.
