During my thirteen years at the Memphis Museum, I wrote and taught classes in geology, biology, chemistry, archaeology and physics. In 1987, I decided it was time for a change and put together a traveling, high voltage electricity show, centered on a one million volt Tesla coil. I am picking out some of my favorite science experiments from the early years of my mailing list (1997-2001), and posting them here as videos. I am revising the text versions too, so you can watch the video and print the new text version for your files from my website, www.krampf.com.
