When does Copyrighted Software cease to be Copyrighted?
Blog Comment The H2O molecule although stable and relatively non-ionic does have a bit of polarity due to the chemical binding between the single oxygen and the 2 hydrogens and the resultant sort of "elbow" the atoms align themselves in the water molecule.
