no, a cup of tea is a small cup, a mug is one of those taller/big things with a big threefinger sized handle.


ok, touche. but they're still two different things. :)

So if I froze orange juice would that be ice? Does it just have to be water? What about popcicles?

Hehe... and baseball caps don't have a brim? Does my laptop's screen have other parts that comprise a monitor? Snow and ice are different photographic concepts (you know, like hail and sleet are different). You can probably find them in a book of photographic terms. ;-P

i'm quite liberal when it comes to the question of DNMC, what would art be without interpretation?

Orange juice and popsicles both have water in them....if frozen, you have ice...lol.

According to Scalvert's logic (snow is made of frozen water, therefore it is ice); a chair is made of wood, therefore it is a house.

not exactly but a house and a chair are both wood.

"guy" and "lady" are, the way you use them, slang.

a hat has a brim. a cap does not.

--

mind you, a lot of the terms you mention here are used interchangeably in everyday speech but that doesn't make them correct.

and, for the record, i think snow and ice are different [i]photographic concepts, whether or not their chemical makeup is the same. :)

now, continue your arguing. [/quote][/i]

Actually lady and guy are both in the dictionary as non-slang words. Lady even has a separate slang meaning. Lady has a meaning of any female or woman...but it's slang meaning is a female lover...lol.

Some wool caps now have brims.

True, but that's not ice... it's frozen orange juice or fruit juice. If it was ice, then that's what we'd call it! For the same reason, a frozen lake isn't ice either. Neither is a glacier or freezing rain, and don't even think of entering a shot of an igloo.

Exactly. Ice and wood are the materials that other thing are made out of. Chairs, pencils, doors, etc. = wood. Glaciers, sleet, hail, etc. = ice.

Your powers of observation are overwhelming me. :-)

How many types of ice can you think of? There's slush, shaved, cubed, crushed, and probably more than that. Hail. Icicles. Frost. A glacier is ice. An iceberg is a part of a glacier, and it's ice too. And snow, which itself takes so many forms that there's a folktale about the Inuit having a zillion and a half words for it, is ice in crystalline flake form. We have different words for them based on their form and function, but all of these things are still ice.

Snow is ice, and I voted it as such.

Made out of the same material does not necessarily mean they are the same thing. There's oxygen in the air we breathe, but there's also oxygen in the water we drink. If I tried breathing water, that would be a fatel error. :-)

So a chair ceases to be wood once it's a chair? I guess a sculpture ceases to be ice once it's been carved, then.

I disagree, and I'm a scientist so you should immediately accept my conclusion.

edit to add, snow is made of ice, though, hehe.

Prediction: at some point, we'll have a Snow challenge, and somebody will declare, "Hey, that's not snow, it's froist! DNMC!"
