This link provides a simple illustration using a soft drink bottle and boiling water. The demo illustrates how condensation within a tank creates a vacuum. Savery’s pump explained below uses a method very similar to the demonstrated method. In the early days, one common way of removing the water was to use a series of buckets on a pulley system operated by horses. This was slow and expensive since the animals required feeding, veterinary care, and housing. The use of steam to pump water was patented by Thomas Savery in 1698, and in his words provided an “engine to raise water by fire”. Savery’s pump worked by heating water to vaporize it, filling a tank with steam, then creating a vacuum by isolating the tank from the steam source and condensing the steam. The vacuum was used to draw water up from the mines. However, the vacuum could only draw water from shallow depths. Another disadvantage of the pump was the use of steam pressure to expel the water that had been drawn into the tank.

This comment is a clear reference to the standard uniformitarian supposition that many primary minerals formed over geological time by very slow crystal growth either in a magma containing water, or in aqueous solutions laden with the chemical elements of which the mineral is composed. Uniformitarian geologists adopted this belief long ago mainly because: (1) it is possible to use aqueous solutions to slowly grow crystals of some minerals in the laboratory, and (2) there was evidence that many secondary minerals in sedimentary deposits had formed in this fashion. In my recent book, Creation’s Tiny Mystery, I challenge the assumption that large crystals of primary minerals grew from small crystals over evolutionary time, and in particular refer to the existence of polonium halos as unambiguous evidence that these minerals were created. I also note in my book that evolutionary geologists should long ago have seen the falsity of this supposition both from the huge size of some natural crystals and from their inability to synthesize even reasonable size specimens of certain minerals such as biotite, an iron-rich mica which often contains radiohalos.

Buyers should make sure the property includes all the items the vendor said they would leave in the contract of sale (inclusions). What happens if there’s a problem? If you find something is broken or in a worse condition than it was during the first inspection, you should raise it with your conveyancer immediately. They will try to negotiate it as a special condition on the contract, which means the vendor must fix it before settlement. If it cannot be patched up in time, the sale price can be reduced to cover the cost of repairs. You may be dying to move into your new house, but it’s best to stay clear-headed and carry out a pre-settlement inspection to ensure the property is in the same condition as when you first inspected it.
