Wow Dottie! I had no idea! How long did it take you to figure all of that out? ;)
That's interesting. I didn't know there were so many different ways to do it. :D

Oh, No I don't mind at all ;D the more the merrier! Thanks for being kind enough ask though.
Did you know the microwave was invented after a researcher walked by a radar tube and
a chocolate bar melted in his pocket.
Yep it's true! The microwave oven did not come about as a result of someone trying to find a better, faster way to cook. During World War II, two scientists invented the magnetron, a tube that produces microwaves. Installing magnetrons in Britain’s radar system, the microwaves were able to spot Nazi warplanes on their way to bomb the British Isles.
By accident, several years later, it was discovered that microwaves also cook food. Called the Radar Range, the first microwave oven to go on the market was roughly as large and heavy as a refrigerator.
The idea of using microwave energy to cook food was accidentally discovered by Percy LeBaron Spencer of the Raytheon Company when he found that radar waves had melted a candy bar in his pocket. Experiments showed that microwave heating could raise the internal temperature of many foods far more rapidly than a conventional oven
