Define: memory

Prove to me water has memory then we'd have to consider if its true or not. Otherwise, what are we supposed to challenge?

you mean like homeopathy?

By has memory, I assume you mean "exhibits hysteresis."
In the crystal phase, ice, this is obviously true. In the liquid and gas phases, water maintains neither polarization or magnetization. Water has no memory.

Stop it, Socrate.

i think op is talking about its chemical structure

You drink my piss and shit every day, OP.

When a substance is diluted in water, the water can carry the memory of that substance even after it has been so diluted that none of the molecules of the original substance remain; and

The molecules of any given substance have a spectrum of frequencies that can be digitally recorded with a computer, then played back into untreated water (using an electronic transducer), and when this is done, the new water will act as if the actual substance were physically present.

This is not conclusive by the way, i repeat not conclusive

Poor effort of a homeopathy thread. We all know thats bullshit. Take that shit to the HuffPost.

I at no point said i believed the theory. Its a debate thread that I started to see opinions. It has little to with homeopathy.

I believe there was an Ig Nobel awarded for attempting to transmit information from one sample of water to another via modem.

Anyway, this is basic thermodynamics. Any structure you impose on a liquid is lost in very short order. Given the appropriate state-to-state rate coefficients, you can calculate your time scale, even (for a macroscopic sample of water, microseconds at most).
