      I wish I did ;-), unfortuantely my work does not require that I blow things up. We do occasioanlly get faulty equipments that blow up though and gosh the smell of burning wire stinks.

      I wish I did too.

      I get to use some pretty scary chemicals instead!

      I haven’t blown anything up but I have managed to tear gas myself a couple of times. Oops!

      YEP 😀 But on a really really small scale. I am talking less than the width of a human hair 🙂 We need to blast the craters in the sample to measure what comes out.

      No! But mine is a different kind of lab so that would mean something had gone VERY wrong 🙂
