> A 26-year old man decided to have a cup of coffee. He took a cup of
> water and put it in the microwave to heat it up (something that he had
> done numerous times before). I am not sure how long he set the timer
> for, but he wanted to bring the water to a boil. When the timer shut
> the oven off, he removed the cup from the oven. As he looked into the
> cup, he noted that the water was not boiling, but suddenly the water
> in the cup 'blew up' into his face. The cup remained intact until he
> threw it out of his hand, but all the water had flown out into his
> face due to the build-up of energy. His whole face is blistered and
> he has 1st and 2nd degree burns to his face which may leave scarring.
>
> He also may have lost partial sight in his left eye. While at the
> hospital, the doctor who was attending to him stated that this is a
> fairly common occurrence and water (alone) should never be heated in a
> microwave oven.

> General Electric's Response:
> Thanks for contacting us; I will be happy to assist you. The e-mail
> that you received is correct. Microwaved water and other liquids do
> not always bubble when they reach boiling point. They can actually get
> superheated, and not bubble at all. The superheated liquid will bubble
> up out of the cup - when it is moved, or when something like a spoon
> or tea bag is put into it.
>
> To prevent this from happening and causing injury, do not heat any
> liquid for more than two minutes per cup. After heating, let the cup
> stand in the microwave for thirty seconds be fore moving it or adding
> anything into it.
>
> Pass this on, you could very well save someone from a lot of pain and
> suffering.
