    There's fun quizzes and even a Goofus & Gallant:


    Goofus tries to bombard U-238 to create plutonium. Gallant instead uses a uranium/graphite pile to make U-235 using slow-moving neutrons to break the nucleus


    There's also a test to see if your friend is selling secrets to the Jerries and a way to have your parents put in internment camps for the duration of the war.


    It's fun for the whole family!

    I had an electronics "education" kit when I was a kid and I accidentally electrocuted my self. Granted I strayed a bit from the instructions to hop up the amps. Funny how those went away too. It was built into a wooden suitcase and consisted of a bunch of coils that you connect wires to to do different things. No plutonium though.

    @Spideyrex: accidentally electrocuted yourself? I don't believe you.

    My next door neighbor and friend had old chemistry kits.

    We used to do the experiments and it was awesome.


    Old electronics kits too, with the wacky old components with a colored dot code on them.


    Classic stuff, all good. :)

    If I had one of these, I'd put it in my pants. Condoms suck.

    @badhatharry:


    Why are you wearing a condom around town in the first place?
