So, like Schroedinger's cat, until the unbreakable sphere is broken open and the contents checked, there's the possibility that the inch-thick sphere contains the entire elemental plane of water.  You're left with a paradox and some seriously pissed off elementals.  Maybe this is how you create a sphere of annhiliation?Now I'm just getting punchy.  I'd better get back to work.PS:  I'm still the most fond of the injection-molded diamond-ice idea, for what it's worth. PPS: it's lines of reasoning like this that have caused my group to ask me not to play spellcasters whenever possible...</blockquote>
