Let me start this off by saying that I am an EXTREME skeptic. When I got home from the Vineyard game this weekend I had several Bio bb's left, so my roomate and I decided to see exactly how biodegratable these bb's are. Since then we have subjected both biodegratable bb's and the standard "never go away" bb's to verious tempuratures of water(the universal solvent). While we have changed the water several times, the bb's have been soaking continously since Saterday evening (with the exception of the measuring). There has been no change. All of the 15 bb's still weigh the same and the standard deviation in size is still minimal(same as original measurements). The only forseeable diference in the way the two of these react to water is that the bio bb's feel extremely slimey when they are wet, where as the standard bb's just feel like wet plastic. we are going to continue soaking the bb's for the next week or so just to see if it is a delayed reaction. Our next step will be to break all of the bb's in half and continue soaking them. If anyone knows another test that we can do that would get different reactions from these two types of bb's supporting biodegration please let me know.
