    I suppose that makes sense since the boiling point of water changes with altitude, I would assume the freezing point would change as well.

    I wasn't, now I am, then I won't be anymore.

    True. So it really depends on which floor Colin's office is before we can judge if it really is a fail or not.

        First floor if you are in the US, ground floor in the UK! Do you need my latitude? :)

          You appear to have enough latitude as it is. Your altitude, however, might be relevant.

                      That depends. It may not be cold at all: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ice_VII[^]

                        It is actually below freezing: sugar interferes with crystalization. I believe Coca-Cola freezes at around 28F if in an open container, lower still if its in a bottle or can, because of the pressure inside the container.

                          We've got one of those machines here. I hate it. It's as big as a house and as noisy as a jackhammer.

                            You should see what happens when you open a bottle of beer or soda when it is too cold :)

                            A while ago he asked me what he should have printed on my business cards. I said 'Wizard'. I read books which nobody else understand. Then I do something which nobody understands. After that the computer does something which nobody understands. When asked, I say things about the results which nobody understand. But everybody expects miracles from me on a regular basis. Looks to me like the classical definition of a wizard.

                              The temperature of ice can vary. And I think the freezing point also depends on atmospheric pressure. :)
