Does anyone else find it ironic that many people call ice rocks and rocks ice? I have never ordered a drink at a bar but I do know enough about mixed drinks to know the meaning of the phrase "on the rocks." Anyone who has watched more than one James Bond movie knows that. So ice cubes are often called rocks.
"Ice" may not be used so commonly but we have all heard of it. It is common enough that there is a website ice.com that is devoted to its sale. Not all rocks are called ice but there is no denying a diamond is a rock.
So there it is. Ice is a rock and a rock, ice. Interesting.
