A potato is: * 80 percent water * 20 percent solids Temperature: * Water boils at ~100*C * Your solder pot ~240*C If you want to try this experiment, talk someone else into doing it while you're on break.

Slightly related story....my dad (vision not so good) put a gallon of WATER in with 4 gallons of cooking oil to deep fry a turkey. Of course the water was on the bottom and when it started boiling, whoooheeee!

Wasn't the potato chip invented by accident when someone dropped sliced potatoes in hot oil? Maybe this could be the new thing! �Lead-Tots� or something like that.
