Damn, I'd love some gift wrap like that, it sounds fascinating, and I'm not even a materials scientist.

− | Whoever added "This comic may also be an example of nerd sniping." should have said what the "nerd sniping" is that they detect here. Giving us terms to look up? Certainly not the spelling error, that's just a simple mistake. "Looking up" doesn't seem like enough to qualify, it should to be a problem to figure out, a solution begging to be found. I'll give it some time, but if I don't see this claim properly expanded I'll remove it next time I'm here.

When I was in high school chemistry way back in 1960 or so, we used to make Nitrogen Triiodide. It is extremely easy to make — put some crystals of iodine in a filter paper in a funnel. Pour ammonia over them. Let dry — often the triiodide will explode as it dries. If scattered on the floor, it will explode if someone steps on it. The explosion is accompanied by a puff of purple smoke. | When I was in high school chemistry way back in 1960 or so, we used to make Nitrogen Triiodide.

::Probably he reuploaded with a correction from "amarid" to "aramid" [[Special:Contributions/198.41.236.148|198.41.236.148]] 11:11, 22 November 2023 (UTC) | ::Probably he reuploaded with a correction from "amarid" to "aramid" [[Special:Contributions/198.41.236.148|198.41.236.148]] 11:11, 22 November 2023 (UTC) | ||
::Yes, Randall updated the comic image with the correction, but uploaded the wrong size. I downloaded the large image and resized it to match the original 2x image here, then uploaded the new version of it over the original image. The cache appears to have finally updated, and this corrected image should now be visible to everyone here.
