                                                    WOUNDS
                                             You must have observed that
                                       a slight skin wound stops bleed-
            ing spontaneously after a little while. This, in fact, is
            quite thought provoking since, under normal conditions,
            a liquid flowing from a hole cannot possibly stop flowing
            of its own accord. To have a better understanding of this
            fact, suppose that you have a
            balloon filled with water. If
            you make a little hole in this
            balloon using a needle, water
            will leak out of the balloon.
            Will it stop leaking after a
            while with no intervention of
            yours? Of course not. All the
            water will keep leaking until
            the balloon runs out of
            water. This applies to all liq-
            uids in closed spaces.
