As in paper?

Jojay · 26/09/2010 22:50

Paper?? Don't I remember that from school?

Or do you mean Linus?

To tempting to push them into acid to see if they change colour.

Iamcountingto3 · 26/09/2010 22:53

Ummm... how about Linus?

wonka · 26/09/2010 22:56

Is this an 'acid test'? Grin

Are you serious? It's not a name.

autodidact · 26/09/2010 23:09

Colourful name.

Smilehighclub · 26/09/2010 23:10

Litmus is lovely. Way better than Linus IMO.

upahill · 26/09/2010 23:10

The first thing I thought of was 'Litmus test' and then thought why not Linus instead.

upahill · 26/09/2010 23:12

he will forever be associated with this

gingerwig · 26/09/2010 23:13

I like the fact that you said you were "testing" the name :o

getawiggleon · 26/09/2010 23:33

I'm neutral on this one.

BaronessBomburst · 26/09/2010 23:42

Litmus is a name??????

There's hydrochloric, sulpuric, and phosphoric acid baths at work. I dangle the litmus paper in them when I'm bored on nightshifts and watch it change colour........

I'd worry he'd end up an alkali alcoholic

escorchio · 27/09/2010 18:36

Oh thank you. I was having a truly awful day and I just laughed out loud. Thank you so much.

Love it, go on, dare you. Then make sure your chosen Primary school has outstanding science provision.

Bunbaker · 27/09/2010 20:07

Blue for a boy and red for a girl? Or were you just testing the water?

abititmuss · 27/09/2010 20:29
