Ice-Nine

from dacca · host dacca

Ice-nine is the name of an unusual water molecule in the "funny" doomsday story "Cat's Cradle" by American Humanist and science-fiction author Kurt Vonnegut. "If one molecule of this unusual water came in contact with a regular molecule of water, the regular molecule would turn to ice-9. This happened over and over again, in geometric progression." James Rickards. If one molecule of ice-nine escapes its vial, ALL water on Earth would turn to ice-nine...Earth would be frozen, and so would all life. Doomsday. Rickards goes on to explain how this concept will apply (metaphorically) to your money: https://dailyreckoning.com/ice-nine-plan/ I recommend JR's books, especially "The Road To Ruin". Follow the breadcrumbs, read...unless you don't care about your own money... --------- Art: AndYaDontStop White out...305/365 | by AndYaDontStop, Flickr
