I recently obtained a "Violet Wand" (not to be confused with a "Violent Wand" which is what Harry Potter fans use when you make fun of them). It was made over 80 years ago, and still works. It's a nice example of applied physics, and ALSO how some will try to scam you into buying quack medical devices claiming to cure almost every known disease. Perfect for Slightly-Mad Science. Time for some antique high voltage! For more information regarding Violet Wands: Wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wik - submitted by AOL Video Uploads user slightly.mad.science@gmail.com
