Everything looks better looking backwards. But now is easily better. We had to go to the library and check out actual books, we had to research in the physical encyclopedias, cars were less comfortable… Heck, I’m on a hand-held computer we call a smartphone… :)
When I was in grade school in the 60s, we had a math problem… “how old will you be in the year 2000?” I calculated 42 and thought “OMG, I’ll be nearly dead by then”…
Water contains two elements, hydrogen (very explosive) and oxygen, which can make almost anything burn. You’d think tossing a match into a body of water would end all life, for the amount of stored Oxygen and Hydrogen. It won’t because it is essentially ash. Inert. It takes a large amount of energy to separate the Oxygen and Hydrogen from each other, before either could be used again. That is the problem. That’s why we don’t pour a gallon of water into a tank and head across country.
Not sure of the OP’s purpose, but this is Augusta GA.
