DanTana,
It's conceivable that perhaps the titanium could expand a tiny bit, but the point to remember is the flexing angle I mentioned. Titanium can be bent 25 degrees before the distortion is too much for it to spring back.
The part your missing in your comparison is that water and metal are molecularly very different. Water is bonded largely through very weak hydrogen bonds which is why it slips through your fingers when you try to pick it up at room. Metal is an entirely different can of worms...

Ok, enough of the foreign imperial measurements here eh? No more chains, furlongs, gills, digits, pennyweights, scruples, pecks or drams.
Lets get modern and metric.
Or does no one recall the error made by Mars lander scientists using an outdated system, once based on regal body measurements, in an attempt to convert to a modern and more common metric one?
My car gets 40 rods to the hogs head and that's the way I like it!
