We do have winter here. Ice has always been

a subject of fascination.

One of my projects in high school was to

study whether ice is formed faster if one

puts hot water or cold water into the

ice tray and then into the freezer.

 

What do you think the answer was?

 

I cannot say this is a proven scientific

fact, but it was the result finding of

my experiment:  the hot water actually

formed the ice cubes faster.  The

presumptive reason for this would be

that the hot water set off the freezer to

begin readjusting the temperature more

aggressively, and therefore the freezer was

coler, and the ice cubes were formed

faster.

 

These are the important sorts of things

one learns in Greenwhich schools.  I am

not being sarcastic.  When one has an

attitude of learning and inquiry, anything

becomes possible. 

 

In my mind this is what acocunts for the

great success of Greenwich students year

after year, as they move through college

and into society.  Invariably they assume

great roles of leadership and influence.
