Uhhhhmmmm, _water_ at hottest can only reach 100 degrees centigrade, not
nearly hot enough to even _melt_ titanium, once the "water" reaches
temperatures above 100 degrees centigrade, it turns into _steam_ :)
However, even funnier than the ludicrous idea that titanium would _melt_
because of the water's _temperature_, is what Giles actually wrote, because
he wrote that the encyclopedia actually stated that the titanium _dissolves_
in hot water, just like sugar in tea :)))
It's a good thing you don't get warm rainshowers in these climates ;)
Cheers!
