I took a 1/3 full bottle of left over Mobil Clean 5000 5W30 off the shelf and moderately shook it. Looking inside with a flashlight, it looked like beer, complete with a small island of white foam in the middle and around the edges. Looked just like the surface of a glass of beer. I thought oil wasn't supposed to foam that easily.

I did the same to a partially empty bottle of Havoline 5W30 and it exhibited tiny bubbles but no whitish looking foam.
 
Hmmm...I'm excited.

1) Nikola Tesla, Brushless AC Induction Motor.
2) LoneRanger, Oil-Beer.
3) William Shockley, John Bardeen & Walter Brattain, Point-Contact Transistor.

Congrats, you've made my top-3! Now if you can find the solution to the ATF-Beef Jerky conundrum...

I sure hope no one shakes my Tahoe vigorously up and down foaming my oil...
