- This is the stuff that was popular in jr and sr high school..
- It can be dangerous especially if some fool makes a quart at a time
- and leaves it lying around to dry out. It'll blow your durn pee pee
- off!

- they step on it... it eventually becomes highly unstable when
- it dries out.

- For a detailed account, there was a post at alt.folklore.college
- and someone can probably send it to you etc..
