Patrick Vessey/Tom Kramer wrote.. Now it is also important to understand the SHAPE of water and its related hydrogen bonding.  Under normal conditions the two hydrogen atoms are at about a 105o angle to each other (not 90o) due to the fact that similar charges oppose each other.  This angle, however, constantly varies due to the influence of other adjacent hydrogen bonds and other outside stimulations (particularly electronic or magnetic).  Remember that atoms are in constant motion and vibration so things do not remain the same...ever. You should also imagine the hydrogen atoms bonding in a V pattern, but try to visualize the V both straight on and sideways (V and I (sideways)).   Now in bonding, two V's cannot combine as these are in opposition (< > positive-to-positive), but a <O-O<O- type of alignment is possible.  It is a bit difficult to show this in 2D and with text only, but I hope you get the idea. Howdy Patrick, Oh! But it were that simple. Your remarks regarding the "shape" of water allow me to mention that we observe vortices being shed off a central vortex when inducing the swirl in water. This works in a vertical cylindrical round tank. In a square tank, the vortices shed off the main vortex produce a combination of either vertical , diagonal or horizontal shaped vortexes at electric drive motor speeds of 3450 RPM. In a square tank, increasing the motor speed above 6500 RPM creates a water vortex with the shape of a true hurricane "eyewall" configuration. From this center eyewall is shed a separate horizontal water vortex that maintains a rather constant shape with the mouth of the shed vortex "kissing" the northwest quadrant of the square tank. We haven't tried a " hex" tank but the 105 degree angle is a thought for  trying various " wedge shaped restrictors" suspended in the tank. Thanks for the idea. The idea of a shotgun configuration is not a new concept. In Texas we have used shotguns for various purposes ever since we discovered their effect on horse thieves, stagecoach robbers and card sharps. Of course, nowadays what with political correctness, we can only turn them loose to send to DC as politicians and lobbyists. Richard
