H2O is a word? Hmmmm, I don't recall ever before
seeing a word that contains a digit.Guess I need
to crawl out from under whatever rock I've been
under,because I had two English professors in

*******ized word",irregardless.
I always thought H2O was the designation for
the elemental composition that is water.
