If it's ice, it should be called ice and not water.

Water can only exist under narrow conditions, but journalists (and scientists) mislead the public by using the word "water" as we all know we understand it's the liquid substance.

        re: Ice, vapor and water= H2O - true, but if it's in vapor/vapour (for our foreign friends) form it's called water. (n/t) - Marcia - 8/31/2007 9:03:39 PM
