For Steve’s Naked Eggs and Flying Potatoes book signing, we shot off Mentos and Diet Coke Geysers in the parking lot and had a liquid Nitrogen parade at the Tattered Cover Book Store in Highlands Ranch. We have more experiments and surprises for the Fire Bubbles and Exploding Toothpaste book signing this week. Who knows what we will do.
The Tattered Cover is used to authors coming in, reading an excerpt from their book and signing a few books.

- You should shoot off a few Mentos geysers and then yell, “Tah-Dah!”
- Shoot smoke rings – that should get everyone’s attention.
- If you’re supposed to be quiet in a book store, they’re in for a huge surprise.
Let me just say that while I appreciate all of your comments, you’re scaring the thunder out of the nice people at the Tattered Cover in Highlands Ranch. I’ve had to assure them that nothing bad will happen, even though I am going to bring out a big crate of science demos and hands-on activities for the big book signing. In fact,
