Sunday Silverman did some painstaking research on the inner workings of how ice making machines really produce ice. I knew how it was done, but I thought you would all really love to see for yourselves. With Greg's help, the link is posted below. BTW, the reason I knew how these machines really worked, was by auditing a course while I was taking a minor in proctology. The instructor was talking about sh**ting bricks in an anatomy lecture. A graduate assistant did his own research while skiing in the mountains of Utah.
