    I believe the proper name for "INSTANT WATER" would be "SNOW"

    That wasn't a real invention. It was copied from nature. Have you ever seen a velcro seed?

    When I was a young punk I used to rub them into the girls hair. I still do but only when they beg me.

    Without fire, there is no metal alloy and Mankind will die due to winter conditions.

    Your assuming northern climates. The temp. in Colombia only varies about 4 deg. and is typically 24 deg. You can sleep in the open (as thousands of homeless do) without fear of cold. The world may be left with only peoples from the tropics with no fire, but they wouldn't die out.
