12/1/2005: Colored bubbles

BigV suggests this interesting one from Popular Science. Interesting tale accompanies that link - the problem, it turns out is not producing colored bubbles, but producing ones that don't stain or burn or create a health hazard, etc.

If you go, read the printable version (just click "print this article") - and find out how this simple task was a huge chemistry problem, and how solving it opens up a bunch of new innovations.
