waaay OT, but talking of Rockets, by spooky co-incidence I was 
reading this earlier on today: 
http://www.cultdeadcow.com/cDc_files/cDc-0363.php (warning: LONG) 
about one man's personal experiences with rockets and a possible 
source of the Urban Legend/Darwin winner, the Rocket Car.  Very 
entertaining.  Don't try this at home.
