Damn

I couldn't think of anything to post about today. Nothing at all. And I don't really have time to post anything in depth, either. So I am left only with this random thought.

Explosions are fire, no? They're an extreme exothermic reaction resulting in heat, flame and overall boomness. This being so, explosions are sheer awesome. I like explosions very much. They're great.

But what about the opposite? I know the technical opposite is an endothermic reaction, causing energy to fall within, resulting in collapse of a sort. Endothermic is a process wherein energy is contained, and exothermic is where energy is released, if I remember my grade 9 science class correctly.

But what about another type of exothermic reaction? An extreme build up of cold? Cold, ice, snow... and boom! The only thing I can think of that is remotely similar to what I'm talking about is an explosive being detonated underneath a snow bank, but that's just not the same thing. I mean... it may look similar, but it's still heat and fire... just with a lot of debris in the form of snow and ice being thrown around. So it's the same... only different.

But no... I'm talking about a new thing which I shall hereby dub the "Coldplosion". You hit the detonate button, and rather than everything being seared and scorched... it all gets frozen and frostbitten. How awesome would that be?

And it would be useful, too. Think of the implications. Firefighting, anyone? Massive forest fire... detonate a coldplosion. Fire goes out. Kaboom, teh awesomeness.

I swear, I should be leading the scientists for what they should be developing. Seriously. Coldplosion. How awesome is that?
