No, air is not a condensible liquid, but I always wear goggles or
glasses anytime I pull the valve core for a more practical reason: that damned airflow always seems to find dirt or other particles to blown in my eyes when I do it. Even condensation hurts like hell when propelled at any significant velocity. Sometimes there are problems that have nothing to do with physics.

Geez, the condensable liquid is water or humidity in our air, it's
condensation we commonly see on the side of an coke bottle after depressurization. The only other person this dense was AKA Ted Azito, this you?

You've ridden a bike, too in the mist, unbelievable pain.

Not near as bad as the West Texas grasshoppers, but still enough to
make me slow way, way down (and consider getting rid of the bike).

He finally came to the conclusion you were a MIT Lisp Machine project designed to emulate a retarded redneck and decided his best bet was to find the programmer and hire him. I guess I'm not as smart as Ted :-) |

In a stark reminder of how drastically Hurricane Katrina has affected the
lives of New Orleanians, Mayor Ray Nagin has purchased a home in Dallas and enrolled his young daughter in school there. Nagin, who spoke with The Times-Picayune by telephone from Dallas, where he has been since Wednesday, said he plans to return to New Orleans on Saturday. He said he will remain in the Crescent City while his family lives for the next six months in Dallas, making occasional visits to his family when possible. It's not clear where Nagin will be living: His home on Bayou St. John suffered massive flooding, the mayor said, although he has not inspected it. "L.W.
