In case you were wondering (useless information)

Old-Colts
If you have a microwave with a turntable and you've ever been annoyed when reheating items, such as a cup of coffee, and the handle never returns to the same position; if you don't want to turn the turntable off each time this might help you. Generally, turntables in microwave ovens so equipped turn at 6 rpm, the same rate of rotation as most search radar antennas. Therefore, in order to have the handle of an object placed in the microwave for heating conveniently return to the same position as it was when placed in the oven, set the cook time to multiples of 10 seconds (10, 20, 30, 40, etc.) since a 6 rpm motor makes one complete revolution every 10 seconds. Your microwave may vary.[:D]

Anyone else have some similarly useless information to share[?]

    Automatic Transmissin Fluid works as a excellent fuel injector in diesel engines. Use approx 1 qt. per 100 gallons. It'll also get a campfire ROARING w/even wet unseasoned wood.
