[Beowulf] Innovative liquid cooling

[Prentice Bisbal]

Jim,

That's great and everything, but what are their thermal conductivities? :-)

Consumption of the propellant alone is a popular activity, leading to ever more complex seals on the cans in the store to prevent people from consuming the propellant and putting the can back on the shelf.
