I forwarded it to a buddy of mine and he said something to the effect of, "So, you can use differential equations fro something other than just passing a differential equations exam."
To which I responded, "They come in handy in my engineering work, too, since there are few engineering problems solved by 18th century French lit or critical race studies."

Another method is to use flash pans. That is pretty cool. I've seen it done with over a hundred small rockets, Mosquitos IIRC.
