Water made by atoms being forced together...<br />I can't help but think of the episode of Futurama where Bender manages to replicate himself on a smaller and smaller scale until he has made millions of microscopic Benders who promptly get to work work stealing water and carbon dioxide and forcing them together to make alcohol to drink.<br /><br />http://theinfosphere.org/Bender_duplicatesRon Larsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16030823782542340978noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4912713243046142041.post-22935355449006879262012-07-24T19:27:06.883-05:002012-07-24T19:27:06.883-05:00Brita Voyager. --A.Brita Voyager. --A.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4912713243046142041.post-15546690290710404972012-07-24T17:38:44.919-05:002012-07-24T17:38:44.919-05:00It probably tastes terrible.
