Has anyone here ever microwaved a CD? I've been having problems with my burner lately so it keeps spitting out coasters. Rather than breaking them and then spend the next two years finding CD parts I microwave them. Put then into the microwave (silver side up) and cook for 3 seconds.

When you get done with them it's like art and they all come out different. It is quite neat. A friend of mine told me about this and I must say it kicks a little ass.

OK that's the stupid microwave trick of the day.
