Storytelling Memes

Scientists doing the iceberg theory in real time. Drop an obscure fact about ice crystalline structures, then never mention it again. Did you know water is one of the few substances whose solid form is less dense than its liquid form? That's why ice floats. I could tell you about the 20+ packing geometries, but I'm contractually obligated to leave that as an unexplored subplot in your scientific curiosity. Just like my dissertation on quantum fluctuations in frozen water molecules that my committee will never read past page 12.
