It appears that, contrary to anything that I have ever heard, an eggplant can explode with a thunderous, house-shaking kaboom when placed in an oven at 400 degrees (Fahrenheit). I have done the "40 minutes at 400 degrees" eggplant-charring technique for my eggplant curry over 6 times in the past with no incident, but this time I think that the eggplant was just a little past its prime. It felt like the flesh had begun to pull away from the skin, so it was a bit dessicated. A good forking, undoubtedly, would have been prudent.
Take care out there.
