When playfulness meets science, the results you get vary from downright silly to startling findings about the nature of life, the universe, and all that is therein implied.

A brief visit to the Tricks page on "Crazy Aaron's Putty World" presents you with ample evidence of the benefits of the play/science dialogue - especially if what you're searching for lies on the "downright silly" end of the conceptual spectrum.

Crazy Aaron sells "Thinking Putty." Made of the same wondersome stuff that is still called by its original silly name, but sold in a post-patented tin containing a far more serious portion (about 7 times as much as you'd get in the egg of renown), Thinking Putty offers investigators the conceptual heft necessary for in-depth speculation.

See the startlingly cool results of writing on Glow-in-the-Dark Thinking Putty with a blacklight pen (coincidentally available from Crazy Aaron - serendipitously free with an order of 4 tins). Observe the questionable impact of shooting Thinking Putty out of a Putty Canon, or smashing it with a hammer, or just hanging it from the ceiling. Contemplate the significance of its magnetic properties. Behold the sartorial splendor of a Thinking Putty shirt. Restore once more your abiding faith in the revelatory powers of fun.
