A: So I’ve read somewhere that glass is actually neither in a liquid nor a solid state. It’s somewhere in between and the particles keep moving but just so slowly that you can’t see it.
B: Uh-huh.
A: Solids are highly organized states but glass can act like a solid state while being very disorganised.
B: Yeah. Have you done anything exciting lately?
A: Do you know the pros and cons of living near wetlands?
B: Can you tell me more about glass? I’m interested in glass.
A: They say glass takes 1 million years to decompose but who will really be around for that long to prove it?
B: Apropos, do we need to go?
A: No! What are you having?
B: Not sure. It all sounds good.
