Hmmm. I like that...is it simply a 1.5 mL microfuge tube with a couple
hundred ul EtOH and a small piece of dry ice? I have tended to like the
more insidious and terrorist-style chemical attack: a q-tip dipped in
butyric acid and dropped in someone's wastebasket or behind a toilet.
They can be safely carried in a ziplock bag for long distance transport
(like across campus) ;)
