DESCRIPTION:In viscoelastic fluids\, there is potential for instability me
 chanisms that persist even at negligibly low inertia: purely elastic insta
 bilities. Some of these are well understood - including long-wave interfac
 ial instabilities\, and curved-streamline instabilities. However\, some su
 ch instabilities are either predicted theoretically and never seen in expe
 riments\, or cause unexplained trouble in experiments. \n\n\nI will presen
 t my experience with an instability that was an unfulfilled theoretical pr
 ediction for over a decade before being seen in experiment.\n
