These are the putty experiments that I have tried thus far:

	1.  Putty is flammable.  The flame is intensly bright white, although 
		it burns slowly.  The residual ash left over from the burning
		putty crumbles easily.
	2.  Putty can be microwaved.  I microwaved the putty in a drinking glass
		for about 3 minutes.  Warm putty is extremely sticky, but
		when cooled, the putty returns to the same state before the 
		microwaving.
	3.  Baking the putty.  We baked a small, cookie-sized chunk of 
		putty in an oven at 450 degrees F for 15 minutes.  After 15
		minutes, the oven started emitting fumes.  We decided to 
		cancel the experiment.  (originally, I was going to bake it
		for 30 minutes).  What remained on the cookie sheet was 	
		a combination of dried putty (silly-powder (tm)) and ultra-hot
		and sticky putty.

	Future work:

	1.  Silly putty and liquid nitrogen.
