SC - Mincing onions

[Mark Schuldenfrei]

  Another trick to "disarm" those noisesome onions is to place them in the
  freezer or ice water for about 10 minutes before chopping.  The volitile
  oils become more viscous and less likely to spew forth when cut.  This
  works exceedingly well and requires no special equipment (apart from
  ice).

I've also found that cutting them near running water can slightly reduce the
tearing problem. Not much, but some.
