Here's a simple way to test the bounce-pattern of your micro-wave oven:
Simpler: stick a neon-bulb with the leads twisted off into the oven. Watch the glow vary. Put a cup of water in there since you're not supposed to run empty. You of course know about CDs as uwave detectors :-)

Not piezo (though quartz is), but non conductive. You have to tap the groundwater table. Sand, granite don't conduct.
