Mking: You're arguing about something I didn't say. Please re-read.

You're talking about elements (nitrogen and oxygen) now... air is not an element. We were talking about air, but that's even beside the point. I never said it couldn't be compressed (or other methods) to get some liquid out of it. Everybody knows many elements and compounds can change state. I never said they couldn't. I simply said gas and liquid are NOT the same thing. No matter how you twist it, gas and liquid are NOT the same. They have different bonds and different properties, not just the density. Known facts about one can NOT be assumed the same and applied to the other. i.e. If you condence air into liquid and then freeze it can you still fly throught it?

BTW, "air" can NOT be turned into a liquid. There's no such thing as liquid or solid air. Some of the compounds/elements in air are already a liquid or can be condensed (or whatever method) into it. Some are already solids. Nothing of what you're talking about is made by simply compressing air.

By now I've already put the jar of flys on the pool heater and cooked them because I just can't go on with this.
