it's all very simple...
my assertion is very easy to prove:
i.e., we have the assertion: "the water and the glass become inseparable from each other," while noting that this assertion refers to a photograph.
Proof:
well, let's use the method mathematicians love: proof by contradiction...
let's assume the water is separable from the glass...
then if you and I flip the photograph over, the water should pour out of the glass.. upon conducting this experiment, my water remained in the glass. therefore, the assertion that the water is separable from the glass is false!
