Re:"You can't use water, of course" (Score 1)

Why couldn't you just fill a tank with Ethanol and dunk your PC in there? It's a non-electrolyte, it has a relatively high specific heat (twice that of air, half that of water), it's non-conductive, it absorbs water, what's the problem?

Besides the fact that it burns pretty well. That's obvious.

It wouldn't be PC to dunk Ethanol in there. Now Fredanol, that's a totally different situation. He filled his tank quite frequently. So you end up with quite a bit of splaning to do. And, of course, can't use a dictionary, either. The term is actually "roiling boil"; just because most people misuse the phrase, doesn't make it right.
