Since Robert Grumbine recommended beating some cornstarch with a spoon
to appreciate what mantle flow as a viscous solid was all about, I
thought I'd make a pot of tea to see what convection was all about as a
fluid.

Now the interesting thing here is that it tumbles nineteen to the dozen

Your tea has a skin on it? You need to wash that pot.
