But then in October, independent teams of researchers in Kyoto and at MIT successfully applied Fujita's protocol to other
molecules, drumming up excitement all over again
about the potential Fujita's work holds for
future applications.
, or work can be done to separate out the smell from the room together with all the
molecules of alcohol and water that made up the perfume and get it back into the bottle, but that would take an awful lot of work, of energy expended to achieve such a thing, same in re-constituting the ink in solution back into its original constituent parts, but, given that statistically that ain't going to happen for all the spilt ink and evaporated perfume in the world unless you wan't to wait for an infinitely long time for it to happen and then maybe it never will, (you are assuming it is bound to happen but it's «statistically as likely not to happen as to happen» has to be included, so there's no «bound to»
about it), or are willing to expend energy to do this for all the examples past present and
future, then, for all practical natural processes purposes, the ink stays mixed and the perfume evaporated.
