This must be the only board where you start with Archey and end up debating custard! However, to fuel the debate further - thixotropic is the opposite of the effect seen with cornstarch - thixotropics substances decrease viscosity with shear force, where as cornstarch increases viscosity with shear force.

My prediction for 2007 - Hoyt bring out the custard cam, the harder you pull the faster it goes - its very messy to adjust, but can provide a light snack between ends.
