Maybe they meant a nice balmy 300º Kelvin......which would be a comfortable 80.33º F.

And TAM had to come ruin our fun. That does sound about right, but I like the story where it they thought the water was 300 degrees Celsius better.

You're not alone. My wife and I will buy dvd's we like, especially for the kids, you know, those kids movies that are actually educational and not garbage? I know, it's harder and harder to find them now days. I've lost all respect for the History channel thanks to their blatant disregard to truth, and pushing that theories are FACT, when in FACT they are theories.

No cable or satellite at this house.

Aside from your obvious attempt to belittle others, what happens when the pressure is gone? Doesn't the water then lose part of the combination required to be super critical? I thought a pool of standing water could not maintain any real pressure? I would think that your theory that it would be super critical water is invalid due to that.
