Now that makes sense, though I would hope it would take a tremendous amount of heat, seeing as how the dye is supposed to be "fluid" only under the direct beam of a laser. Otherwise, pit size would be all over the place.
"Note to self: Start watching Mythbusters."
Oh, it is one of MANY awesome episodes. They attach CDs to a router and try various speeds - faster and faster. Slow-motion photograpy shows the disc warping as it spins. Finally, they max out the router, and the discs shatter as soon as they throw the switch. GREAT STUFF!
Episode 2: Cell Phone Destruction, Silicone Breasts, CD-ROM Shattering
"In this episode, Jamie and Adam test several explosive theories. Can chatting on a cell phone while pumping gas cause the pump to blow up? Our mythbusters put themselves at risk so you don't have to. They also put silicone breast implants to the test at high altitude. Will they burst under pressure? Finally, we'll learn once and for all if high-speed CD-ROM players can really shatter a compact disc."
