80,000 cans of Silly String, and no way to get them to Iraq
By REBECCA SANTANA, Associated Press Writer (Published: August 24, 2007)

ARTICLE SNIPPET: “DEPTFORD TOWNSHIP, N.J. (AP) - Marcelle Shriver has about 80,000 cans of Silly String and all she needs is a way to get them to Iraq.”

ARTICLE SNIPPET: “Shriver got the idea from her son, a soldier in Ramadi. Before entering a building, troops squirt the gooey substance, which can travel about 10 to 12 feet, across an area. If it falls to the ground - that’s an indication there are no trip wires. If it hangs in the air, troops know they may have a problem.”
