In his column, AWWA Executive Director Jack Hoffbuhr discusses an article in Science Magazine about new scientific developments related to water. The article changed his perception of how water molecules are arrayed, among other things, thus upsetting his conventional viewpoint of water. The article in Science Magazine also states that ions are escaping into the atmosphere from the water surface, that one million new genes were discovered in samples from the Saragasso Sea, and scientists decoded the genome sequence of Dehalococcides ethenogenes.
