Quote of the day: Alan Beyerchen on (un)fluidity

From "How the Language of Complexity Reveals Hidden Habits of Mind"

What word would we use to negate the fundamental assumption of flux? Would stability be “unfluidity,” “non-fluidity,” “afluidity”? Would solids be “disfluids”? Words such as “hazy,” “fuzzy,” or “blurred” would have positive connotations.
