Hi Bill et al!

What a cool article! Thanks! Hydrogen peroxide is
what they used in the early Bell Helicopter one man
backpack. I understand if you spray hydrogen peroxide
on silver mesh it will instantly convert to steam
which is used to lift the flying man backpack. Guess
everyone under it would wind up with teary, burned
eyes or bleached hair from incomplete
combustion..<g>..
