Clear and to the point... Bravo! Do we really need to see others cutting paper strips for 5 minutes? (Clue. Select NO).

Heads up contributors, this is how you do it. GET TO THE POINT,
quick and cleaver cuts and a sound track that lets you HEAR
what is being said. And PLEASE skip the crappy garageband
background music for everyones sake!

I hope everyone appreciates this contribution. This is NOT a wrap the match in gum foil bar trick addition!

u could prolly change the color with manesium powder or different types of metals mixed in. potassium nitrate i think is a common fertilizer found in hardware stores.
