We should celebrate water. It's important. In fact, we'd die without it. There should also be a World Oxygen Day as well.

It's not technically a holiday(we're not celebrating), it's a day marked for the observation and thought towards the fact that in spite of the planet being 3/4 water, it's still a rare and valuable resource in many parts of the world. It's 2005, and we still can't provide enough of the #1 needed resource across the globe.

And a day for

gravity
time
land
the sun
the milky way
the universe
nitrogen
carbon
well... most of the elements
that ice floats rather than sinks like most frozen liquids

every day should be a "things that help us exist" day!

it's called density, buddy or specifically water's state diagram

Ok, I wasn't saying it was magic, I'm just saying that without ice having a lesser density than water we probably wouldn't be alive as a species. It's nice that the one liquid we rely so heavily on has this property. The laws of physics might not have been so nice as to have allowed this.

I wanted to make a point about why this is important rather than having my day about "water's state diagram"

I'd argue that oil far surpasses it at the moment, even if not immediately imperitive for the third world. Without it, the first would not be able to provide aid or medical/material relief.
