    hi friends,

    i thought i should make this thread a useful one as this is my first thread in this forum. so i would like to keep on post the useful forwards that needs to be shared which i get in my mail.


    THIS ONE NEEDS TO BE SHARED !!

    Micro waved water - a MUST read
    A 26-year old decided to have a cup of coffee. He took a cup of water and
    put it in the microwave to heat it up (something that he had done numerous
    times before). I am not sure how long he set the timer for, but he told me
    he wanted to bring the water to a boil. When the timer shut the oven off, he
    removed the cup from the oven. As he looked into the cup, he noted that the
    water was not boiling, but instantly the water in the cup "blew up" into his
    face. The cup remained intact until he threw it out of his hand but all the
    water had flown out into his face due to the build up of energy. His whole
    face is blistered and he has 1st and 2nd degree burns to his face, which may
    leave scarring. He also may have lost partial sight in his left eye. While
    at the hospital, the doctor who was attending to him stated that this is
    fairly common occurrence and water (alone) should never be heated in a
    microwave oven. If water is heated in this manner, something should be
    placed in the cup to diffuse the energy such as: a
    wooden stir stick, tea bag, etc. It is however a much safer choice to boil
    the water in a teakettle.

    General Electric's (* GE*) response:

    Thanks for contacting us. I will be happy to assist you. The e-mail that you
    received is correct. Microwaved water and other liquids do not always bubble
    when they reach the boiling point. They can actually get superheated and not
    bubble at all. The superheated liquid will bubble up out of the cup when it
    is moved or when something like a spoon or tea bag is put into it. To
    prevent this from happening and causing injury, do not
    heat any liquid for more than two minutes per cup. After heating, let the
    cup stand in the microwave for thirty seconds before moving it or adding
    anything into it.

    If you pass this on ... you could very well save someone from a lot of pain
    and suffering.


    love
    shree
