Japanese Researchers Make Plastic Out of Water

greenrainbow writes with this excerpt from Inhabit: "The material shown in the picture above is just ice, right? Look again. Elastic water, a new substance invented by researchers at Tokyo University, is a jelly-like substance made up of 95% water along with two grams of clay and a small amount of organic materials. As is, the all-natural substance is perfect for medical procedures, because it's made of water, poses no harm to people, and is perfect for mending tissue. And, if the research team can increase the density of this exciting new substance, it could be used in place of our current oil-based plastics for a host of other things."

water + clay + organic = god made a human?

Is it like some sort of a water bag/pocket, only if it tears it will not leak, is it sort of like Jelo?

The story has no details, it's water + clay + some organic stuff.

Sounds like what god was using to throw together the first human prototype. Are these guys from Tokyo god?
