On the "memory" of water, in last weeks' Nature. (link)
quote:

Now by using an ultrathin sample cell, the behaviour of the hydrogen bond network structure has been studied in pure H2O. The results are surprising: water loses its 'memory' of structural correlations within 50 femtoseconds, an order of magnitude faster than seen previously.



Better drink down that D20 dilution quickly :P

My prediction: Homeopaths will cite this article as "scientific proof" that water has memory, but that only they, after extensive research, have developed the ability to extend the memory retention period from mere femtoseconds to years.

Which, of course, is why their water is so expensive ... they have to recover the cost of all that research.
