WHEN PEOPLE TRY TO TELL THIS BLOG THAT YOUNG PEOPLE TODAY HAVE NOTHING TO CONTRIBUTE

This blog violently disagrees.

FIRST to commend the idea...

[Igloo]

I thought the Brits liked their beer warm. This kid needs to be in the United States, where an invention of such magnitude would receive the honors it so richly deserves.

"Ladies and gentlemen, this year's recipient of the Nobel Prize for Peace...Kent Hodgson!"

I'm telling you terrorism will stop as soon as we can get our Arab brothers quick cooling beer technology at an affordable price.

[Doc Rick]

And the AL GORE should be happy with this revelation. Stick a few million of those super-cooler sticks around the polar ice cap and BOOM, no more global warming. Everybody wins! *runs off to get another beer and celebrate a Texans touchdown of more than 4 yards*

I liked the Mythbusters episode on this...they did basically the same thing with a fire extinguisher. Got the whole 6 pack chilled in about 5 seconds.

Impressive.

[Auntie M]

So, it sounds like it might be cheaper to buy a fire extinguisher to cool down beer.
*yells to husband*
Honey! We need to go to the hardware store!

*puts beer in freezer*

Good thing I got Jim Beam till the beer gets cold.

[ArcticAl]

Round here we just leave our beer on the porch. You have to bring it in early to thaw though on the colder days.

[Doc Rick]

Quickest way I ever got a beer cold was to take a couple up to the ex-wife's chest and wait for about a tenth of a second. Never failed...hehe!

[DeskDiva]

Hahahahahaha, Doc!!!

[Fearess Leader]

Very cool.

[mm]

This little thing would fit right on your keychain, though. Would fit right in your pocket. Kinda tough to do that with a fire extinguisher. But I don't know how it would do for a fire in your pants. Just sayin'.

[DeskDiva]

I guess that means we can't wear hot pants?

[mm]

We can Diva, we just gotta find some other way to cool them off... ;)

[Jeff Meyerson]

Doc got my line. The Nobel committee said I was too late.

[mm]

That was my first thought as well.

I'm really confused here. I guess we need ExMatt to explain how Carbon dioxide sometimes is causing heating (global warming) and sometimes cooling (beer). I don't get it.

[Howard from Broward]

mm: it's called the Thermos principle. A Thermos keeps hot stuff hot and cold stuff cold. Not sure how it knows the difference, tho.
