Since it's opening 17 days ago, Avatar has grossed 1 billion dollars worldwide. Seventeen days.

Probably an old Gilbert chemistry set that I had... alcohol lamp, sample of uranium, little Geiger counter, lots of toxic and flammable chemicals, real glass Erlenmeyer flasks & test tubes on which I was duly burned and didn't sue anyone - it's hard to find a decent Chem kit nowadays. The lawyers have hqiz'd that up for all of us, I'm afraid.
