Taste the Rainbow, Grumpy Cat

No, it's not another one of those weird Skittles ads, it's actually the newest piece by artist Olga Shvartsur called Grumpy Cat Tastes The Rainbow. Something tells me Tardar Sauce would be grumpy even if she found the end of the rainbow and got to eat the leprecaun protecting his gold there.

Hello,

Magnesium (to make magnesium chloride) comes from dolomite, the principle ore of magnesium. It's chemical formula is CaMg(CO3)2. That's calcium magnesium carbonate. This is then treated with an acid solution to separate out the metals. In the process the carbonate rock releases carbon dioxide. So any carbon dioxide that could possibly be absorbed by the magnesium was already released by the production of the magnesium.

Someone also made the claim that they could use lime (calcium oxide) to absorb massive amounts of CO2 to form limestone (calcium carbonate). Then someone pointed out the obvious. To produce lime, you heat limestone.

@zavatone God I disagree with you. I've been to Shanghai in 2004 and, allthough it has changed a lot since then, I have fond memories of it's skyline and energy.

Pudong is the perfect sci-fi city. It doesn't mean it should be replicated everywhere, but Montreal could use some of that...

yafortier - curiously, why do you like it? The item I am referring to is the molecule like tower that has a ball and stick structure. It's obviously cast concrete and its structure doesn't really serve a purpose except to look different. It takes up space and visually affronts the form follows function approach.

In the Shanghai of last year, I'm sure the skyline is more developed then when you were there in 2004. Building is going on at an insane rate. But what really confused me is that many of the new buildings have hats or structures on the top that look like headgear. It's completely weird.
