    [continued from previous message]

    Among those that study it, common parlance on the strangeness of water tends to focus on the fact that the H2O molecule is a polar molecule.10 These explanations don’t go far enough. To truly capture its paradoxical nature we have to take into
    consideration the fact that proximity to other H2O molecules is the mechanism that neutralizes its polarity. Therefore, the more molecules of water have the collective properties of a liquid (close proximity to each other) the more they have the
    individual properties of a gas (electromagnetic neutrality) and vice versa. Consequently, molecules of liquid H2O, unlike those of any others substance, just kind of float, banging into each other, bouncing away, producing a pendulumic conservation of
    energy as, with distance, the charges return that bring them back again, spreading energy through the matrix as a consequence of their high degree of connectivity. And this is just to set the stage for more strangeness that emerges in conjunction with
    the geometry of the H2O molecule that dictate limitations on its collective ability to neutralize its own polarity, which occurs in a highly stable form along the surface of liquid water, producing surface tension, and in a much less stable form below itâ
    €™s surface, producing low-density anomalies. Additionally, we have to take into consideration the tendency of H2O molecules to collectively form a mechanical matrix that, if the temperature is low enough and the matrix is energetically unbalanced, will
    facilitate a cascading chain reaction that will produce a widening general interruption in their collective ability to neutralize their own polarity, producing ice; or, if the matrix is energetically balanced and mechanically synchronized (as will be the
    the case if cooled slowly under calm conditions) will effectuate a threshold that acts as a barrier to its ability to initiate any such cascading chain reaction, producing supercooled water. And, as has been well documented by others, all of this is just
    a drop in the bucket of the strangeness engendered by this seemingly simple molecule.

    Conclusion and Future Research
    I believe the understanding being proposed here can, and will eventually, serve as the basis of a larger consensus about the nature of water. Additionally, I believe the thinking in this paper sets the stage for the yet discovered forms of structurally
    hard, electromagnetically active water, which may lead to insight into the mysteries of atmospheric flow, especially with respect to the atmospheric vortices that comprise jet streams and tornadoes.

    Along these lines, I think it is also interesting to consider the possibility that the mechanical matrix aspect underlying the formation of ice may vary considerably with differences in molecular composition. Might, for example, extremely small
    quantities of water, as found in microdroplets suspended in the atmosphere, be less likely to freeze due to the fact that their matrix is so small? If so, this might provide an explanation for the prevalence of supercooled water observed in the higher
    and colder altitudes of the atmosphere (upper troposphere). (The premise here is not simply that PISD events cannot be initiated in smaller matrices but that, in addition, PNSA events cannot be inhibited. Or, it might be only one or the other or some
    unequal combination of both, all of which may vary with the size of the microdroplet.)
