Yeah, I have like no ideas, and since I'm homeschooled now, I can't really do anything big. I wanted to do this thing I tried a long time ago with taste bud studies, but now I can't because I don't have the time to quiz too many people.
So far I only have one idea, but it's kinda lame...I wanted to see whether my laptop gets a better internet connection whether I have my door opened or closed, because GW seems to crash all the time when I close it. /pathetic
COME ON NERRS, PUT YOUR HI-TECHNICAAL BRAINS TO THE TEST FOR ME. :< |

Suggestion for a project question: Will pennies rust?
Have a one just sit out in the open. Another soaking in a plastic cup of water. Another spritzed with water on the first day. And if you want, a penny in a plastic cup of vinegar and/or a penny in a plastic cup of olive oil.
If you have a camera, take a picture of the pennies lined up in a row every morning until the day of the fair.
The one that's not touched by water is the control piece: the piece which nothing is done to and you can compare it to the others.
Near the end of the project, take the pennies out of the cups and look at them. Compare the wetted ones to the dry one, and then say whether they have rusted or not. |

^Is totally going to do that this year^
What I did last year was I took N-acetylcysteine, water, and leaves that hadn't fallen from a tree. I crushed the leaves into a near-powder, mixed it with the cysteine dissolved in water, and checked to see if it prevented the dead leaves turning brown.
It was easy as *crag*. xD N-acetylcysteine comes in little capsules (ZYDRATE COMES IN A LITTLE GLASS VILE~) that you pull open, and it's a powder. I have no idea why someone would think a substance used to dissolve mucus would prevent leaves from dying when mutilated, but my teacher pulled it out of nowhere and said "DO THIS KTHX". |

Take 4 different samples of bacteria, and add no antibiotics to one, add like 1/8 mg of it to another, 1/2 of it to another and 1 mg to another. After about a month or two of doing that daily, Add a full dosage to each cell culture and see if the bacteria have built up an immunity to it yet |
