a : the power or process of reproducing or recalling what has been learned and retained especially through associative mechanisms
First I want to make one thing clearer... you say they "found a method to make water droplets visible". What this means is that they simply froze the droplets and examined the crystal ice structures right? If that's the case, what I am saying is... the ice structures turn out the way they do because of the influence the observer has on the water molecules at the quantum level. The structures aren't displaying something which was stored or memorized in the water, but rather the structures are being influenced into specific shapes by the observer.

The same water has been here since the beginning, and it knows it is vital to life on this planet.

Think about it.
I don't know, it seems to me like you need to re-read what I said and think about it more carefully.
The ice structures are being forced into specific shapes by the conscious observer because consciousness has an effect on quantum particles.
No effect of consciousness on quanta has ever been observed.

That does not make any sense, no the water hasn't been here since the beginning, I take you are referring to the water cycle. Water is H2O, those chemicals may have been recombined into a multitude of things even energy, since the beginning of the universe and even on earth, consider how a hydrogen battery works. Look on how stars are born, collect (gravitational aggregation) and transmute mater (in decreasing complexity, from heavier elements down).

Why do you think that. I thought quantum collapse by the observer was a well documented affect.

And where does the water come from
Scientists have found the biggest and oldest reservoir of water ever--so large and so old, it’s almost impossible to describe. The water is out in space, a place we used to think of as desolate and desert dry, but it's turning out to be pretty lush. Researchers found a lake of water so large that it could provide each person on Earth an entire planet’s worth of water--20,000 times over. Yes, so much water out there in space that it could supply each one of us all the water on Earth--Niagara Falls, the Pacific Ocean, the polar ice caps, the puddle in the bottom of the canoe you forgot to flip over--20,000 times over.

It's amazing how two people can look at a presentation and come away with totally different perspectives. What I see is the complete debunking of a god or observer or whatever you want to call it. If water can come out of chaos and into uniformity (to retain and form information) then there's no need for an intelligent entity to inject that information into the universe. For me, the making of life is simply a matter of Just add water.

Sorry bud you are off the dart board it is not only documented on sites like this.It is a science and a strong one at that. Go and have a look.... It is not just theory it is used. There are quantum encryption systems, quantum computers, quantum teleportation, quantum biology. I could go on but I am sure you get the point..
and no the wave cannot be collapsed by an automatic camera until a person watches the recording..edit on 15-4-2013 by purplemer because: (no reason given)
A cat is placed in a box, together with a radioactive atom. If the atom decays, and the geiger-counter detects an alpha particle, the hammer hits a flask of prussic acid (HCN), killing the cat. The paradox lies in the clever coupling of quantum and classical domains. Before the observer opens the box, the cat's fate is tied to the wave function of the atom, which is itself in a superposition of decayed and undecayed states. Thus, said Schroedinger, the cat must itself be in a superposition of dead and alive states before the observer opens the box, ``observes'' the cat, and ``collapses'' it's wave function

No it is not the same for everything in existence. Until the camera recording is observed the oberservation is in a state of super position.. This is science not only theory but applied. You are missing the point.
Like this cat...

Now if you have time for some eye openers have a little look at this for a good introduction..
