Cyberland has a lot comments going on this lava lamp idea. This one was especially interesting.

Soap Lake, Washington is planning on installing a giant Lava Lamp at the center of their town to attract tourists. It will be an estimated 60 ft high with a max diameter of 18 ft. It will hold approximately 60,000 gallons of liquid including the wax-petroleum-jelly hybrid gloopy stuff. One has to wonder though if some drunkard at 3 AM isn't going to yank out a firearm, whoop it up, and cause the downtown core to be bathed with piping-hot chemical-enriched liquid. Now *that* I would have to see. ;)

Lava lamps always seem to go stale after a few years. As if the liquid gets dusty and tired, the lamp gets hazy, friends stop looking. I fear the same for this town's giant lamp - fun for a while, but I bet it's going to be a sad little albatross in three years time.

(Jan. 14, 03) Another cyber opinion re the giant lava lamp. "What kind of drugs would go with this light?".....See, I've always told you all that lava lamps were a state of mind. It comes naturally to people of Eastern Washington. We are ahead of our time.
Of course, that release of radioactive gases into the atmosphere from Hanford nuclear plant in Eastern Washington might also have something to do with it.
