Indeed, Mars seems to possess many of the elements essential to life on earth. Most of Mars' visible water appears in the form of atmospheric vapor or ice locked in the planet's two polar caps (the surface pressure on Mars is so low* that liquid water would probably boil away). But liquid water apparently once did flow freely on the Martian surface in earlier days; Viking's orbital pictures show that the planet is crisscrossed by dry "riverbeds" and sinuous valleys, including a deep Grand Canyon-like depression called the Valles Marineris, that were probably carved...
...Party paled in comparison with the not-very-democratic parties that went on behind closed doors at all hours. The Philadelphia Inquirer front-paged a story on the revelry scene. Its major disclosure: more beer and less Scotch was being offered than in 1972. Dozens of reporters on the liquid late-night beat and even some bona fide guests could not gain entry to a supper sponsored by Rolling Stone magazine because of unexpected crowds of gate crashers. The problem was that veteran Prankster Dick Tuck had printed thousands of counterfeit invitations in Reliable Source, an irreverent daily tabloid that...

Alas, his unfulfilled young wife Amy is not resigned to her condition. She indulges in "fantasies of liquid the color of magenta, a pomegranate redness, viscous to the touch, so that one has to lick it dry." Poor Edward is clearly in for trouble...
...LIQUID hydrogen explosion three alaram fire in the experimental chamber of the Cambridge Electron Accelerator yesterday injured eight Harvard and MIT scientists and research technicians, three of them critically. The multi-million dollar explosion ripped apart the entire roof of the circular experiment section of the CEA complex, severely damaged a $1,000,000 hydrogen bubble chamber, and destroyed an elevator shaft in the adjoining administrative section of the structure...
Over and over, flip-flopping down, sideways, fishtailing-swandiving, Reggie Younging down down down. On your back, watching the sky and the two hawks seesawing on the updraft off the cliff, and the rude shock of the pool's liquid ice closing out the sky, and the clawing back up out of the water and up the trail. Nerves on millions of little trampolines, many falling off and breaking their necks. Tingles, rushes and fades...
