How about using superfluidic liquid helium here? (Zero vicosity). It's not going to stay a superfluid unless the freezing process is over, since contact with a relatively warm body will make it evaporate. (That's assuming that the freezing process actually goes down to liquid helium temperatures, which it currently doesn't.) -- Tim Freeman <> CompuServe ID 71045,2267 checked occasionally. When they took the fourth amendment, I was silent because I don't deal drugs. When they took the sixth amendment, I kept quiet because I know I'm innocent. When they took the second amendment, I said nothing because I don't own a gun. Now they've come for the first amendment, and I can't say anything at all.
