#2Pretty cool article. The five described points are: 1) the kinds of ice 2) phase transition between two liquid forms of water 3) three unclear points about evaporation 4) the pH value of the surface of waterfalls and 5) quantum mechanical effects of nanoconfined water.
Highly worth reading, and it's a pretty easy read, too.

#5So we may still find some day ice-nine like the one found in Kurt Vonnegut's Cat's Cradle. Or do we know that it's impossible?

Anything new about these 5 points since then?

It would seem to me some laws of thermodynamics would prevent any such "infection"-style reaction, but I am not a physicist nor chemist.

This is around the very controversial question of whether amorphous water can have a structure. Controversy, because homeopathy. Pretty pictures, though!
