So I'm vaked and browsing the web to fill my time. For some unknown reason I googled 'vapor' and then read the dictionary.com definitions, and history of the word vapor...figured the lounge would be appropriate for this. Cause it is vapor related, but not so much to the vapor we love.

So if Anyones board, take a ump to this link and read some of the info. http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/Vapor

The basic definitions aren't so much interesting, but the other info farther down is. (IMO)

as far as the scientific definition of vapor is concerned, the first definition on that site is incorrect.

in science, vapor is invisible.

Actually, I found it quite a bit more interesting to read about what exactly vapor is, physically, like what is smoke? smoke contains vapor, but vapor does not contain smoke, smoke is mostly solid particles.

Vapor is a gas and I think its a lot more interesting if you get into it....

actually vapor and gas are synonyms, and in the field of chemistry they are used interchangably.
