Quote

From Sr. Margarita Aloyisius's sister (we need a better blog nickname for her than that!):

From a chemistry final that she graded:

"Q: A compound that absorbs moisture from the air is __________.
A: Thirsty

The real answer to that question is "hygroscopic." But it was so funny that I wanted to give the kid the points."
