   So So we were looking experimentally for experimental preparation where where we could see that that particles or solutes were kicked out in in some kind of water-based experiment. So we took a gel and and we added water and particles. The particles were little spheres called microspheres. And we looked in the microscope and adjacent to the gel in the water we could see a region where there were no microspheres. Very substantial region. Plenty of microspheres beyond that but not inside of it. And so as we studied this more and more we found that the properties of this we called it initially ex…

   Um so um so we thought maybe possibly uh this is a region here of ordered water right next to the gel. Of course, we had no evidence for that, but we surmised that it's possible that that's that's the case. Um and uh somebody suggested to us because we began seeing this time and time again that we give it a name, and an Australian colleague came and said, "Well, why don't you call it exclusion zone because it excludes, you know, it makes sense. And also, it has the advantage that it can be abbreviated EZ, which is easy to remember." So, so we wind up with EZ water um over here. And that stuck.…

   It's kind of like a template that allows for the build-up of this of this EZ. So, so it's pretty general. Um and what's excluded from the exclusion zone? So, we've looked at uh um many uh particles and solutes from from giant particles to small particles like microspheres to bacteria to viruses to large molecules like proteins uh to small molecules down to molecular weight approximately 100 or so, and uh almost everything is excluded. So, um and I I'm skipping the evidence a little bit because there's a lot more that I want to include, and all of this stuff is published. So, um in terms of gen…

   that region that good that started from ordinary liquid water and transformed itself to this what we call easy water fourphase water and as it grew it pushed out contaminants that's why we called it exclusion zone and and the surprise came a few years later when when I guess I was the one who decided to check the electrical potential of of this kind of water because I had done work very early in my career measuring the electrical potential of cells. And I I I knew how to measure electrical potential in in very fine regions using an invention of Gilbert Ling himself, a kind of electrode that co…

    In an initial baptism it is typically fixed by an ostension or a description. Otherwise, the reference is usually determined by a chain, passing the name from link to link. The same observations hold for such a general term as “gold”. If we imagine a hypothetical (admittedly somewhat artificial) baptism of the substance, we must imagine it picked out by some such “definition” as, “Gold is the substance instantiated by the items over there, or at any rate, by almost all of them”. (Kripke 1980: 135) On this version of general SE, satisfaction conditions for the predicate “is gold” must be define…
