I promise never to try to be helpful about old net ramblings again.
I tried to summarize this thing so it could meet a merciful end, and
what happens?  (1) I get mail about not phrasing the question correctly,
(2) I get mail about forgetting the *real* answer--Freon.  I suspect
that the question expected the answer "glass" since these folk quizzes
tend to be very superficial, and it's common folk knowledge (the truth
is another matter) that glass is a liquid.

Mea culpa, mea culpa, mea maxima culpa.
