[FRIAM] To repeat is rational, but to wander is transcendent

[Eric Charles]

That is a bizarre distinction, that can only be maintained within some sort
of odd, contextless discussion. If you tell me the number of atoms of a
particular substance that you have smushed within a given space, we can,
with reasonable accuracy, tell you the density, and hence the "state of
matter". When we change the quantity of matter within that space, we can
also calculate the expected change in temperature.

For example, when there are 25 moles of propane in the tank under my grill,
the state of matter is liquid.
