YET MORE. "How does evaporation take place? Why does a tea kettle whistle? Also, despite the fact that conventional science tells us freezing is supposed to occur at zero degrees Celsius, experiments show that it can freeze in many different temperatures down to minus 50 degrees Celsius. There’s actually no one single freezing point for water! Other experiments show that the boiling point of 100 degrees Celsius (or 212 degrees Fahrenheit) does not always hold true either." https://lnkd.in/d2JfT4i View in LinkedIn

LIQUID CRYSTALS. "Gelatin dessert is about 95% water ... So the question arises, why doesn’t the water dribble out? There are some gels that are 99.95% water. The water doesn’t dribble out. Well, there are osmotic arguments but they are hard to apply when you have 99.95% water." http://www.caims.ca/news/2011-nerenberg-lecture-fourth-phase-water-gerald-pollack View in LinkedIn

LIQUID CRYSTALS. "If you look at a gel, it consists mostly of empty space. It’s filled with water. There are nucleating surfaces with a hydrophilic charge and they are going to nucleate, ordering the water into exclusion zone water ... It is a liquid crystal that sticks to the surface and therefore it is not going to come out." http://www.caims.ca/news/2011-nerenberg-lecture-fourth-phase-water-gerald-pollack View in LinkedIn

"A COMMON PARLOUR TRICK is to float a needle or a coin in a glass of water. “How is this possible?” Pollack asks. “Some of you know that water has an anomalous high surface tension. But it’s not that high, the idea is that it comes from a single molecular layer at the surface.” http://www.caims.ca/news/2011-nerenberg-lecture-fourth-phase-water-gerald-pollack View in LinkedIn

"POLLACK THINKS that there is some other mechanism at work. “To think that one molecular layer can achieve all this is really the question. So we began to study the interface between water and air.” He noticed that a “crystalline structure grows at the interface between air and water. It is a stable zone and it looks like an exclusion zone, it also has a negative charge as well as a constant thickness.” http://www.caims.ca/news/2011-nerenberg-lecture-fourth-phase-water-gerald-pollack View in LinkedIn

"THE WATER THREAD EXPERIMENT is a phenomenon that occurs when two containers of deionized water, placed on an insulator, are connected by a thread, then a high-voltage positive electric charge is applied to one container, and a negative charge to the other. At a critical voltage, an unsupported water liquid bridge is formed between the containers, which will remain even when they are separated. It is theorized that this bridge is made of up an H3O2 lattice or Exclusion Zone Water." http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_thread_experiment View in LinkedIn

CREDENTIALED SCIENTIST. "Pollack is a highly decorated professor at the University of Washington, author of numerous peer-reviewed papers, recipient of the 2012 Prigogine Medal, and editor of the academic journal Water. I mention this because in a field fraught with what some call pseudo-science, but what I’ll politely call speculative inquiry unburdened by scientific rigor, paradigm-busting theories attract an inordinate degree of hostility." https://lnkd.in/dmZHjMr View in LinkedIn

"WATER SCIENCE has had a checkered history. The polywater debacle left scars; it kept curious scientists away from water for decades. Then came water memory. Memory stored in water seemed so improbable that it became the butt of scientific jokes." https://lnkd.in/dKWdrys View in LinkedIn

RESISTANCE TO NEW IDEAS. "Challenging convention is not a bed of roses, I assure you. You might think that members of the scientific establishment would warmly embrace fresh approaches that throw new light on old thinking, but mostly they do not."
