< <--OT-->MSFT firing on all cylinders not with gasoline but nitrous oxide.>

In after-hours trading MSFT was up around 164 (~8 1/2 points above the close. That ain't nitrous oxide--that's nitro glycerine!!!

Nitrous Oxide [N2O] is an ingredient in rocket fuel formulations, used because it's very stable at ordinary temperatures but packs a tremendous wallop upon combustion. It's also Laughing Gas, and an analgesic/anesthetic/asphyxiant depending on exposure.

A vaporous liquid contained under pressure, generally unsuitable for piston engines. Nitroglycerine is preferred for race cars.
