plasma in your microwave? David Reid sounds like he is. He's using his domestic microwave oven to melt iron, silver and bronze! Over 900C! I don't know about you, but I'm going to be checking the temperature of my pizza rather more carefully in future..."
didn't they always tell us not to put metal in the microwave? sparks fly baby!
Kinda puts that rice I made earlier to shame, huh?
I saw some comments here about microwaving food like pizza - so i'm gonna post this here once and for all..i wrote this letter to my State Health Department Chair awhile ago, along with a hundred other supporters from my school:

Dear Health and Human Services Chair Ortiz,
It has been made abundantly clear that the overwhelming majority of Californians do not want microwave ovens - as it can cause serious injuries/deaths and Cancer.
Microwaves quick heating treatment of food substances can lead to uneven and non-calculatable heat distribution in the food - causing so called 'cold spots' and 'hot spots' respectively. Thus germs are often not sufficiently inactivated and eliminated. In tests, histological studies with micro-waved carrots and broccoli, have revealed that the molecular structures of nutrients are deformed by high frequency reversal of polarity, even up to the point of destroying the cell walls, whereas in conventional cooking, the cell structures remain intact.
The anthroposophist A. Bohmert reported the following discovery, that water heated in a microwave oven and other conventional ovens and then left to cool. These water samples were used to bring grain to germination. The grain in contact with micro-waved water, was the only ones that did not germinate. Other scientists have proved that microwaves cause cancer in animals. (Dealler, S.F./Lacey, R.W. (1990) Superficial Microwave Heating. Nature 344: 496.
Motherly instincts are right
Many of us come from a generation where mothers and grandmothers have distrusted the modern "inside out" cooking they claimed was "not suitable" for most foods. My mother refused to even try baking anything in a microwave. She also didn't like the way a cup of coffee tasted when heated in a microwave oven. I have to fully agree and can't argue either fact. Her own common sense and instincts told her that there was no way microwave cooking could be natural nor make foods "taste they way they're supposed to".
Bottom Line:
Micro-waved food causes cancer.
One single meal heated in a microwave oven does not kill us, but after a prolonged intake, such micro waved food will cause so many blockages in the body that it will start to rebel. One day the world will wake up to the fact that microwaves do cause cancer, and even worse than cigarettes.
Micro waved food causes a slow . In the beginning, superficially, we save a little time in heating up our morning coffee in the microwave oven - but the time we save, we are cutting off our own lives. There is no cure in the world to prevent or heal it as long as the cause remains in our homes and we continue to use these devices.
I strongly urge you to ban out microwave oven products.
