Also, if the water was in the mythical state discussed here in which it is 90% liquid and 10% vapor, the liquid portion would definitely fall into the bucket. The only way it could not have reached the bucket would be if it was vapor, as far as I know. Notice it was not sparging when the camera first looked at the steam pipe in the bucket. The steam was escaping and the condensate flowing down into the bucket. After that Lewan put the hose under the water but a lot of steam still escaped. That was not deep enough to sparge it and condense it all. - Jed
