After experiencing the ump-teenth snow event here this season, I can't help but ask; "Where does the white go when the snow melts?"

I don't know about that, Clifford. Heck, I had to clue Bob in on what was the first thing that Adam said to Eve.

"YES DEAR" was probably there too, but I'm pretty sure that the first words uttered by Adam to Eve translates into

"STAND BACK BABY, I HAVE NO IDEA HOW BIG THIS THING IS GONNA GET!!!!"


HAR, HAR, HAR!!





Kind of like a conversion project.

If you truly live with a lot of snow you would know that the white is absorbed by all the dog crap underneath it. I have a yard full to prove it.

Cheers

Hi Richard,

I can tell you the answer but, then I'd have to........ well, you know.

Better yet, answer this question and I'll tell you the answer to yours.
If the energizer bunny attacks someone, is he charged with battery?

Good Answer Richard!

Ok, here is my scintific answer..lol


WHERE DOES THE WHITE GO WHEN THE SNOW MELTS ?

Answer: What is snow made of?
Water, right? Except it is water frozen in a special
way, by accretion of little bits as the snowflake
drops through the atmosphere, so that snow is pretty
random stuff, compared to ice which is also frozen
water, but which has all the water molecules nicely
lined up which makes it transparent. The randomness
of snow means that when light strikes the snow it
gets scattered in all directions, and all colors are
jumbled up, so when you look at snow all you see is
the jumble, which shows up as white light. When
it melts, it just turns into water (and usually
disappears into the ground) which does not have the
kind of randomness snow has at the level of the
wavelengths of visible light. (Visible light
has wavelengths much longer than the size of molecules).
So, the "white" did not really exist on its own -
it was a property of the arrangement of the water molecules
in snow, and disappears as soon as that arrangement is
changed.

So there you have it!
