Re: Don't understand physics of the atom? Nevermind.

As a spectator, it shouldn't matter what the water is, generally. How
do you think it could feels good to swim in? You like it? You're
bizzare in your taste. It's kind of dirty and smelly, you know.

Although Democritus is a mathematician, an astronomer, a scientist, his writings on ethics are as
interesting:

"Water can be both good and bad, of use and dangerous. To the danger, however, a remedy has been
found: learning to swim."



Agreed. Water can be both good and bad. But I think swimming in a pool of Newater (or processed
pang-sai water ) makes one feel good generally.
