OK, slightly O/T, but while you're waiting for the proverbial water to boil, consider how you could use your microwave oven and a block of cheese to calculate the speed of light. It can be done, and with pretty good accuracy
#3902891 Microwave Ovens -- Do They Wear Out Slowly?

I think microwaves ovens do deteriorate over time. I suspect (although I have absolutely no proof) that they wear out because they gradually cook themselves to death. This could occur if the oven was supplying more energy than the food/drink could quickly absorb. That excess energy could conceivably cook the oven's operating components. (?)
