The water may be more plentiful, but, it still takes up volume and mass.

1 gal of water weighs about 8.35 lbs. and takes up 231 cubic inches

So 90 gal weighs over 750 lbs and takes up over 12 cubic ft.

That's a lot, of extra weight and volume being taken up.

I can't help but wonder if the water is being doped with alcohol - it would
increase the amount of H2 per unit of liquid, and IIRC, increases
conductivity of the water, not to mention decreasing the temperature of
freezing solid.


Can anyone confirm the effects of electricity through alcohol?
