Abstract
DOUBTLESS readers of NATURE will have noted that, although twice challenged by us to say what evidence there is for his notion that not ‘hydrone’ (steam) but something much more complex and ‘hydronolic’ (water) is formed by combustion in flames, Prof. Armstrong has vouchsafed no answer. If his fertile imagination cannot frame one we may be sure none is forthcoming, so that judgment will now go by default, however much in his closing speech he may gibe at his opponents.
