Dear demo enthusiasts,

   Last night was fun, thanks for coming! 

 First, a bit of a recap:

-   There is definitely interest in participating in the physics day performance.

-   A balloon theme is possible for that:
-  heavy, light, and normal balloon demo  (Josh Shields had a very entertaining performance)
  
-  balloon animals in liquid nitrogen
   
-  helium balloon in accelerating box
 
-  Art meets science 
-- a student (Janet ?) promised to send us an email with reminder information
-- particularly regarding the museum exhibit
   
-  Other?  

-  Other things discussed:
  
-  Ideas for "safer" ballistic pendulum?  
-  levitation superconductor with larger magnet?  So, it is easier to see
 
-  Ferrofluids are awesome:  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ferrofluid
   
--> We should buy some of that
-  UV color changing beads are neat too:  http://www.stevespanglerscience.com/product/color-changing-uv-beads
-  What did I miss?  Send me (or all of us) email with things I missed and other ideas.

-  Some links to look over for other ideas:
  
-   Arbor scientific catalog: http://ipaperus.ipaperus.com/ArborScientific/Aborsci201213/
-   UVA demo lab:  http://demolab.phys.virginia.edu/demos/demolab.asp
-   Many demo links: http://www.ph.utexas.edu/~phy-demo/resources/resources.html
            (the Brown page at the top seems pretty good)
-   Some demos and explanation:  http://www.lhup.edu/~dsimanek/scenario/demos.htm

As for next time we meet, I made a doodle poll – please participate:

Thanks for coming!  Lets try to iterate over email on some ideas.  I look forward to hearing yours…
