===================================
This keeps happening again and again and again and.....
Time to get net.wisdom now.
I leave a glass full of water near my window. Many hours later I see
all these bubbles sticking silently on the glass walls. The bubbles
seem to be smallest near the top, bigger in the center and sort of
small at the bottom. Also, the number of bubbles seem fewer in the center
when compared with those at ends.
Well, why do these bubbles form? Why the size differences? Why the number
difference? Hmmmmm, try it and then tell me: what happened and why.

ps: I have seen this happening in industrial size vessels too - for you
engineers out there. Particularly, in cooling towers.
