"The more scientists examine H2O, the stranger it starts to seem. Water
bends all the rules – but if it didn’t, ice would sink and firefighters’
hoses would be useless"

A fun article that explains some of the special properties of water that
make it so vital.  Via Alex Grossman and Kee Hinckley.

Share and enjoy,
