My whole life I've been told that glass is a high-viscosity liquid.
Thanks, xkcd.

Yeah... I cannot count the number of times I've been told that. I also live in North Carolina, so we had tons of those old-timey windows that were thicker on the bottom, "distorted from time," etc, etc.

Yeah, but it ain't because glass flows. You ever ask these dudes for a measure of glass's viscosity? I'd love to see that experiment.

I'd been told that growing up, too, but I learned awhile back that it was untrue.
Still and interesting page to read, tough.

I'd actually never heard that before.
Maybe public schools in the south fill science class with creationist theory instead of science? ;)
