No Ice, Please

Scientists at Argonne National Laboratory in Chicago have discovered a new kind of water that doesn't freeze--even at temperatures near absolute zero. “Even though people have been modeling water for decades,” said visiting scientist Christian J. Burnham from the University of Houston, “we are only now just beginning to appreciate the importance of including the correct quantum-level description of the motion of the hydrogen nuclei and we are still working on a more accurate mathematical description of the charge clouds enveloping each water molecule.” Uhh,...sure. Keep us posted on that, willya?
