Philosophy Wire: Hard materials. Hollow mountains…

Disordered materials tend to be harder than those who exhibit perfect order in their structure. [1] We like strength. We admire materials which stay the same regardless of their external environment. But could such a material withstand the pressure of change itself? Take a look at the highest mountains. A small river flows within their heart. Soon the mountains will not be anymore. Soon the silent ocean will laugh… Relax... You don't need to swim out of it…
