Is it over yet...

     Summarizing the reason for the decline in the human capacity to reason is a bit difficult to explain. On one hand you have a degradation of education. On the other you have social degradations leading to a rather self interested, under achieving and eventually self destructive mannerism. The question is why? Personally Id dare say its just naturally what happens to a society or even a species when enough time has passed and there initial patterns start to need some reconfiguring. Who am I to say. I am one of the uneducated masses.

Yes, but don't you understand that this is exactly the point, which is once the sap dried out it becomes solid, it s not liquid anymore, because you cannot pour it.

Scientific definition of what is solid or liquid is different from what is the common definition.
Who cares if science says that a glass is liquid, it won't change anything in my life since practically I cannot do anything i do with other liquids.
Whatever science says I believe they should change their definition of "liquid" with something more appropriate like "liquoid material" or shit like that, and leave the normal definition for every day usage, in order to avoid confusion.

So until i ll be able to pour a large piece of glass into a narrow container, like i do with water, that would be classified as solid..........by me and anyone except the egomaniac that found out that the glass is tecnically a liquid.

IT ANSWERS EVERYTHING GLASS IS NOT A LIQUID  IT IS AN AMORPHOUS SOLID!!!

Huh, no it's not. I found it interesting. I read some stuff on it then. Dude, just look at some past PUB threads. There are some retarded thread such as X vs. X and not forgetting the millions of GW is not an MMO threads. There are some cool people on this forums and some idiots. Some are in between, like myself.

That's been proven wrong years ago, my friend.

 okay thats it. scientist have found that on old churches that the bottom of the glass is thicker than the top. thats because its drooped. if you were in a time machine and you stared at glass and 1000 of years went by in seconds you would see the glass droop like syrup. and syrup is a liquid. no one f*cking believes me.  excuse my lanquage

They are thicker at the bottom because antique glass was made in a process much less efficient than manufacturing glass today. There was always a thicker end, and during the construction of the building they would choose to place the thicker end facing downwards for stability.

Sometimes they misjudged or overlooked the orientation of a piece, which is why some antique windows are actually thicker at the top, right, or left rather than the bottom.

By the way, if it did 'droop', then antique glass shelving, which is horizontal rather than vertical, should have drooped downwards, but it hasn't. It is thicker at one end just like windows.

The idea that non-molten glass is a liquid is old, it just unfortunately rears its head now and again. Scientists have debunked this whole thing many times. It is nearly as much a farce as the idea that hair loss is genetic. No, if you're balding, it's probably your fault.

Don't be embarrassed, it's ok to stir some controversy.

Who should be ashemed is the scientists that tried to pass the glass as a liquid, without actualy thinking this through.
It is obvious it is not a liquid. Even if the glass will be proven that it would fit in a cup after a billion years, still it is not going to happen in our lifetime, therefore it should't be considered a liquid.

Also remember that in our planet Earth everything can be transformed in liquid, providing the right temperature (aka melting), so definition of liquid can assume different meaning for different people.
Gold would be liquid if the temperature of the earth woulb be a couple hundred degree higher.
What we consider liquid, relates to the normal state of the material, in the normalb condition we live in.
Water is liquid, but when it froze it become solid.
What is solid or liquid is mainly dictacted by the temperature the material find himself in.
