ground school

[balut]

I was taking a ground school class for private pilots. During the session on weather, the instructor wanted to discuss the concept of sublimation, the act of going from a gas to a solid skipping the intermediate liquid stage. He gave as an example water vapor in the air condensing on a windshield to form ice. Wanting to see if the class had understood the concept, the instructor asked if anyone could provide an example of something that went straight from a solid to a gas. He was expecting "dry ice'' as the answer. One of the students blurted out, "Burritos."

I'm sure that there's regularly a liquid phase as well.

seeing as how I went for Mexican for lunch today....I can see why Burritos would be the logical answer for this concept.

They dont call them diarrhitos for no reason. "Yes I'll have a diarrhito with extra runs sauce please."
