I was just thinking, we have become so used to microwave ovens as part of our life, but when they first started becoming popular, a lot of people were fearful of exposure. Now, no one bats an eyelid.
Which makes me wonder, what would the resident conspiracy theorists think if the microwave oven was a new invention? Would they be fearful that the government was implanting something in them? Trying to nuke them on the quiet? trying to read their thoughts through microwave radiation? I dare to say, would they be used to implant a virus?
Just wondering as its pretty amazing that we can reheat food so easily now and don't think about it for a second.
Dude,
You really need to get a hobby.
I wanted to take up adding pithy comments to other people's postings, but it has been very quiet as of late. I was almost going to reply to my own posts. Thank god you stepped in.
I then wanted to draw pictures of houses, but there is so much supply of those people.
What's your opinion on stuff?
Want to buy an Elgrand? I have a surplus at the moment.
I used to be a microwave oven repair man. Back in the day when they looked like this.
I used to stand behind the fridge when I tested them with a glass of water. " They're safe aren't they?" Customers sometimes asked. "Oh yes" I'd reply
Where's this Elgrand?

Davros was a microwave oven?
I was going to say they were something from the 80's but I recall that they have been around for a lot longer than that, it was just the 80s that made them cheap.
Right now I have an Elgrand in Perth, and another Elgrand in Sydney that will be making it's way to Perth.
I find it quite interesting that microwave ovens were discovered by accident
In 1945, the heating effect of a high-power microwave beam was accidentally discovered by Percy Spencer, an American self-taught engineer from Howland, Maine. Employed by Raytheon at the time, he noticed that microwaves from an active radar set he was working on started to melt a chocolate bar he had in his pocket.

I remember my colleagues used to tell stories about all the radar engineers they knew would seem to only have girl children. I don't know how true it was, but it sounds like people would have been aware of the 'warming' effect of microwaves, but I guess this only really happened when radar units became common in WWII.

Before you are smart enough to do that you have to be able to answer these simple questions, even a child can answer :
Is it possible to detonate non-exploding nano-thermite (military grade type) using microwaves ?
Were any illegal laws passed in the US in 1937 related to microwaves ?
Does a microwave oven weigh as much in a moving elevator as it does in an anti-gravity chamber, or does one only work on the microwave's feet and the other on every bit of the microwave ?

shoot!! microwaved my dinner after coming home late from work for years. I have 5 daughters!!!!!!!
Back in the dark ages [when I had both more fingers and more hair], I was an apprentice wood machinist learning the finer points of the trade at Leederville Tech.
In a dusty corner of the workshop was a "Radio Frequency Press" which worked by microwaving wet timber so it could be formed into different shapes.
No one was allowed anywhere near it, something to do with the stray microwaves outnumbering the tame ones - and the runaway micro's escaping in large numbers at around the same height above ground as the average machine operators blokey-bits.
Dude,
You really need to get a hobby.
I suggest windsurfing... although nobody seems to do that anymore...

I have all the gear, so I might give it a go. Perhaps starting November?

That reminds me of what people were thinking about 'atomic' energy in the early days before they realised it is not a good thing.
Yeah, sure its safe...

Ah... yeah... gear... November sounds like a good plan...
Although, lately, I have been forced back to the valley, or at least the goat farm, on some kind of other expensive recreational activity which I don't have enough time to do...

I heard a rumour that somebody here has invented a Macrowave oven that's much better
I have some suggestions too:
1. It is quite difficult to see what is going inside M.oven. Why not to replace from steel mesh with color display and camera inside view? 2.Temperature sensor. IR that could detect temperature of the staff cooked or boiled inside? We should be able to set for a glass of milk to be warmed up to say 95C, or shut of when internal temperature of the steak or any other product exceed 300C.
3.Cooking vesel that allow tumbling products and another stirring or mixing while cooking.4.Combining ultrasound energy with microwaves- that is another uninvented yet.
When I was at a trade show in Chicago a few years ago in regards to food and beverage, one of the winners of innovated design was a microwave that had AI artificial intelligence and a few other new technologies. This thing could monitor what you placed into the oven and heat it without destroying the product as well as heat a specific zones within the oven. This meant you could put two different products into the oven chamber and it would cook them at separate energy levels. The placement of the magnetron also meant you could put metal into the oven safely and cook. Not seen it come out in the commercial equipment just yet but it was still being developed back then.
Give me a Combi oven over a microwave any day.

Already exists with microwave and has been for sometime.
Nothing else required.
