.@mariastephanos FYI the correct terminology is “the snow is like concrete” NOT that it’s like cement. Cement is a dry gray powder that is mixed with aggregate and water to make concrete. What you said is akin to calling a cake “flour.” #IAmACivilEngineer #ASCE

.@DavidMuir FYI the proper term is “crushed concrete,” not “crushed cement.” Just like a cake is made with flour, concrete is made with cement (and water and aggregate). Cement is a dry gray powder. #IAmACivilEngineer #ASCE

Hey, @ReeveWill: I just heard you on @GMA… fyi it’s “concrete” not “cement.” (Cement, water, and aggregate mixed together form concrete.) Calling it cement is akin to calling a cake “flour.” #IAmACivilEngineer
