You could use a magnet coated in plastic, as is done in chem labs. The base contains another magnet turned by a motor, or a series of magnetic coils. |
|
| |
Or, with the coated magnet, simply hold the cup still and let
the Earth rotate. |

I do like to keep the trub in my tea in suspension (+) |
|
| |
//what drinks need continual stirring ?// |
|
| |
Malaysian jelly drinks might. See link. |
|
| |
Anything made from a powder. Instant hot cider has a tendency to precipitate whilst slowly consumed, which this cup would reduce. |
|
| |
Trub? "Trub is one of the largest municipalities of Switzerland .... located in the Emmental region." |
|
| |
Emmental? So is trub some kind of cheese? In your tea? |
|

Back in the good old days of the three-martini lunch and highballs in the afternoon, drinks with ice in them were kept strirred up with a thing called a swizzle stick (to prevent taking a sip off the top and getting nothing but ice water (a sobering thought (hah!))). I recall seeing several gadgets for automatic swizzle sticks. Let me Google.....nope, not finding. |
|
| |
trub is brewing sediment and, by implication, the fines in
tea. |
|
| |
Is that like taxes on tea? Because those don't go well, as I recall. |
|
| |
Oh, I dunno. It worked, didn't it? We finally got you to
accept independence. |
|
| |
//We finally got you to accept independence.// That was
part of the long-term plan to defeat the Germans in
1918, and again in 1945, and the Russians in 1991. In fact, the
plan is still working: to this day, the Americans
supply the British nuclear deterrent. |
|
| |
Shut up, [mp]. By now, there may be Americans who can read, you know. Unlikely, but possible. |
|
| |
Forseeing the rise of China, the British planted, in 1947,
the seeds of an atomic arms race right on the Middle
Kingdom's doorstep,
to hold them back a little.
And the Balfour declaration was amazingly prescient: it
actually foresaw the need to thwart Iraqi & Iranian nuclear
ambitions. |
|
| |
Only one thing worries me: what was the future threat
which the South African nuclear capability was supposed to
counter? Where's Hari Seldon when you need him? |
|
| |
He's quite happy, and safe, and helping us with our enquiries. |
