Return with us now those thrilling days of the 17th century, the predigital world when things were more interesting, and more tasteful. This version of G.G.'s thermometer is the most elegant we've seen, with no bright, discordant colors spoiling the science. It's a simple, 11" tall, clear-glass tube on its own 2-7/16" dia base, with (5) globes full of opaque white fluid, and plain silver tags, floating inside. Globes run from 64°F/18°C to 80°F/26°C in 4°F/2°C-degree increments. Includes instructions and a silver plastic sleeve that slides over the cylinder to give it a more 21st century look, but we'd skip that. Ruins the aesthetic.

Call it the sound-sensitive pentaneck oscillight. The black 3-1/16" dia base holds (5) slim, steel goosenecks that terminate in translucent white ping-pong-ball-like globes. Inside, multicolored LEDs blink on and off in a random color pattern or to match the beat of the music, or your tone of voice. Has sound-sensitivity settings in case it's not as sensitive as you like. Awfully nice on a table or sound system, but could also be adapted as part of a very special hat. You bring (3) "AAA" batteries to the party.

The round magnifier has a 3-1/2" dia lens with a 13/16" dia helper, and measures 7-1/2" long OA. The square magnifier isn't; it's a 3-1/2" x 2" rectangle (so sue us) with a 3/4" dia higher-power lens inset and a light. Measures approx 9" long when opened, but the 4" handle handily folds away for storage. You add a pair of "AAA" batteries.
