Hi Al;

    I often use mine to heat up an old coffee mug full of water to
    soften some jet-set thermoplastic, or to heat a cup of water to mix a
    bit of fresh pickle/hydrogen peroxide mixture to remove copper that
    gets plated on to a metal article.  But hey, who couldn't use a bit
    of microwave popcorn on occasion, eh?
