what are green houses made out of?

orange bricks of course!
Decrease the belief in God, and you increase the numbers of those who wish to play at being God by being “society’s supervisors,” who deny the existence of divine standards, but are very serious about imposing their own standards on society.-Neal A. Maxwell

In a lake.
The lake is on an island.

Yup. That is what I was going to say . . . in the middle of the Pacific Ocean.

I was going to mention that bit, but I'm not sure if it's in the Pacific, or the East China Sea. It's not that clear from the Google Maps data.

Lake Huron, in Canada, has an island - Manitoulin Island, that itself has multiple lakes with islands of their own. To the best of my knowledge, Manitoulin Island is the largest freshwater island in the world.

Yes, but is is a fluvial lake... between freshwater and the ocean; there can be saline regions surrounding the lake. Manitoulin is entirely encased in fresh water.

Except in winter.

It's still fresh water that has changed state.

Once it has changed state it is no longer water.

What is this, some medieval "science" perchance?
The chemical make up doesn't change, ergo it is still water.
It will be dihydrogenousoxide no matter how much it chrystalises.
What's your stance on vapour then, or how about fog and mist?

All water is H2O, but not all H2O is water.

That's like saying the carbon in coal is not the same as the carbon in a diamond. Carbon is carbon. Water is water regardless of it's current "state" or "form".

No; there are terms that take state or form into account.

Carbon is an element, what form it takes makes no difference to the fact that it is Carbon.
Water is H2O
Ice is H2O
Water vapor is H2O
That it takes different forms makes no difference to the fact that it is water.

Correct.

Correct.

Incorrect. Only H2O in the liquid state is water. Is there any time in your day-to-day life that you would ask for or be asked for ice or water and the other would be acceptable?

So if I go ask for some carbon, you'll give me a diamond?
