    Default Chemistry Demonstration

    During Summer School, the chemistry professor was demonstrating the
    properties of various acids.

    "Now I'm going to drop this pure silver coin into this glass of acid. Will it dissolve?"

    "No sir," one student called out.

    "No?" queried the professor.

    "Perhaps you can explain why you're so sure that the silver won't dissolve in this particular acid."


    "Because if it would, you wouldn't have dropped it in!"

    Forgive your enemies, but never, ever forget their names.
    The stupid neither forgive nor forget; the naïve forgive and forget; the wise forgive but never forget.
