# The pushers at the American Museum of Natural History have a new exhibit called “H2O=Life”. I guess “Crack Cocaine = Awesome” finally closed.
# I assume that this is some fog of drug smoke to make me care about water.
# Mind Blowing!

* Melanie: Here we have water in its 3 phases…
* Stephen: It’s cold!
* Melanie: It’s cold. It’s ice. It’s cold as ice. We have liquid water here. And you have water vapor - water in its gaseous state down there. So, ice, liquid… solid, liquid…
* Stephen: So we have water, we have gas, and we have ice.
* Melanie: No, we have…
* Stephen: That’s water.
* Melanie: Yes. That’s water…
* Stephen: This is ice.
* Melanie: This is ice water
* Stephen: No, no. ice water is water that is cold. Ice cold. Ice water. Ice, water, gas.
* Melanie: Ice. Water. Water vapor. It’s all water. It’s all water, whether it’s ice, whether it’s liquid…
* Stephen: Ok - there’s ice skating, and then there is water skiing,
* Melanie: There is water skiing… yea. You’re right.
* Stephen: Ok - I accept your apology.
#
* Melanie: About 60% of the human body is water.
* Stephen: If that’s true, why am I only 2% interested?
#
* Melanie: A river has carved this over millions of years.
* Stephen: Thousands of years.
* Melanie: Millions of years.
* Stephen: Thousands of years.
# You don’t have to tell me about the power of water. I mean, obviously Noah’s Ark. Destroyed all life on Earth except for those animals that were on Noah’s Ark.
# If water is so darned precious, why do we let fish poop in it?
# Seriously - do you know half of the stuff fish do in water?
# I don’t perceive you as sexless just because you’re a scientist. Just because scientists are trying to destroy sex.
# Given a chance, water will destroy us. I say a preemptive strike is the best thing to protect ourselves.
#
* Stephen: I’m sorry I’ve destroyed all your arguments. Unless there is some other use for water that you didn’t mention…
* Melaine: Yea. There is one. [Cut to Dr. Stiassny spraying Stephen in the face]
