Water that isn't Wet?
http://exn.ca/video/?video=exn20050209-waterless.asx
A new fire suppressing compound has been created that appears just like water, but that doesn't conduct electricity and can put out fires easily. It can be used if there is a fire near an electronic device as it cannot damage or short out the device. Enjoy. |

Pure water doesn't conduct electricity.
Only salts which are generally dissolved in water conduct.

Interesting. Any idea of the cost and toxicity? Water is used because it is cheap, effective, safe, and widely available.
Wonder about this stuff?
