- Original Message - Oh yes, to add to the lingering mystery, Cygnus X-3 switched off in 1996. Kaput. Had not a lot of effort and documentation gone in to understanding the particle, prior to that time, it would be easy for the skeptic to write off the Cygnet as science fiction,

It' funny when you think about it (peculiar not Ha-Ha) that water and carbon - the two most important constituents of the human body - have a lot in common. Carbon has two main allotropes, Diamond and Graphite. Water also has two main allotropes, Water and Ice. Now it's true that we normally
