OT Weather in Da Lou this AM: The Triple Point Of Water! ;-)

[John Kuthe]

That delicate balance of temp and pressure that water exists as a solid, liquid and a gas all at the same time!

And usually ON MY WINDSHIELD! ;-)

Are you on Mars? TP of water is at a partial pressure of ~ 0.1 PSI.

From the reference YOU gave above: "[...] and a pressure of 611.73 pascals
(ca. 6.1173 millibars, 0.0060373057 atm)"

This is actually very close to mean surface air pressure on Mars, John.

Triple point for any substance (water in this case) is always expressed
as a temperature AND a pressure, not just a temperature.

That's a song that has been trending since Bowie died. The kids like it and if you can pull off this difficult-to-sing song competently, you get instant cred as a singer.

They probably know who Bowie was the way I knew who Buddy Holly was.

[Master Bruce]

Yes, or Pat Boone.

The kids don't know who Bowie is. They just like "Life on Mars?"

Pat Boone was still alive when I was young. Buddy Holly died when I was
2 years old.

If they even know it, they'll think that's about a chocolate bar.

[dsi1]

They might in your town. Not in the USA. I'm not even sure what a Mars bar is. I do know what the Mars candy company is. The founder of that company opened up a chocolate factory in the middle of the dessert. That's just crazy enough to work!

But at least Pat Boone is ding TV commercials and even has an oldies

[Master Bruce]

I prefer a Snickers.

[itsjoan...@webtv.net]

I'll take either one however the peanuts are a nice plus. But must admit
that Mars 'dark' is awfully tasty!

[Bryan Simmons]

I'd have to be pretty hungry to eat a Mars, Snickers, 3 Musketeers or
Milky Way, but Mars makes Dove, and I really like both Dove dark and
milk chocolate, and I'll pretty happily eat peanut M&Ms. I've had a lot
of women tell me that they find peanut M&Ms irresistable.

The only Hershey products I like are Heath, Almond Joy and Mounds.
When I was a child, I'd trade Halloween candy with other children for
those, and for Hershey's Special Dark, and it was never one for one.
I could get 2 or more of my favorites for one of my least favorites.
One full size Butterfinger or Kitkat could be traded for a whole
handful of miniature Special Darks or Mounds. The next school
day after Halloween was trading day at recess, and the teachers
were fine with that. Trade is a good thing, and kids should learn
about markets.

I remember 3 Musketeers. I think they appeared and disappeared in the
70s in the Netherlands. They were ok.

[dsi1]

That's sounds like a good idea. I've eaten Mars bars in the past but they were pretty forgettable.

Have you ever consider the Scottish way to eat a Mars Bar? It sounds
disgusting to me, but apparently it is a think there.

[Master Bruce]

Are you trying their accent?

[dsi1]

I'd eat it at least once. Some things are worth getting diarrhea for. I'd eat halo-halo even though the last time nearly killed me - but what a way to die.

[Gary]

Is that completely true?

I've always loved Snickers but never cared for Mars. Not sure if just
peanuts would have made the difference. (?)

Yes...just "ok." I never did care much for them.

I rarely eat candy these days but my favorites use to be:

- Reeses Peanut Butter cups
- Snickers
- Peanut M&M's

Sounds disgusting, tastes divine :-)

We were having lunch at the local pub, owned by a friend (called
Graham ) who came for a chat and mentioned the Scottish Mars bar thing.

I said I'd never tried it (or wanted to). He immediately went out to
the kitchen and made me one; dipped in batter and deep fried. So it's a
crispy batter case and all the chocolate and MB filling has melted
inside. Probably a million deadly calories but you'd die happy.

Did she like them herself?

[Master Bruce]

Isn't there also nougat in a Snickers bar? A Mars bar is just a lot of
Mars.

[Sheldon Martin]

Not true... Snickers contains peanuts but also caramel... Mars bar is
only chocolate covered nouget, no peanuts but also no caramel.
My favorite was a Welches Fudge BAR, chocolate covered Chocolate
Fudge... seems to be no longer made.

I'm reading that
-the European Mars bar is called Milky Way in the US
-the American Mars bar is something else and disappeared in 2002
-the European Milky Way bar is called 3 Musketeers in the US

It's one big mess.

Before calling anyone ignorant you have to know what country they are in
and how long has it been since they bought one.

>
Are Mars bar and Milky Way the same thing?
Milky Way is a brand of chocolate-covered confectionery bar manufactured
and marketed by the Mars confectionery company. There are two variants:
the global Milky Way bar, which is sold as 3 Musketeers in the US and
Canada; and the US Milky Way bar, which is sold as the Mars bar
worldwide (including Canada).

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mars_(chocolate_bar)
Mars, commonly known as Mars Bar, is a variety of chocolate bar produced
by Mars, Incorporated. It was first manufactured in 1932 in Slough,
England by Forrest Mars, Sr.[2] The bar was sold in two different
formulations. In its original British version the bar consists of
caramel and nougat coated with milk chocolate. An American version of
the Mars Bar was produced which had nougat and toasted almonds covered
in milk chocolate; later, caramel was added to the recipe as well. The
American version was discontinued in 2002, and then revived the
following year under the name "Snickers Almond".
