Mathematicians defy gravity using liquid
“If the shaking is vigorous enough to overcome surface tension experienced as the drop is compressed, the drop will tend to lean forward, producing a net force which drives the drop uphill”
BRISTOL, England, Oct. 8 British scientists have shown liquid drops can travel uphill when the surface they are on is vigorously shaken up and down. via Earth Times

This is news? Okey Dokey Then. We all know things change due to variables. All this experiment proved was that they added pressure to break the static tension of the water droplets and the outside pressure caused them to condense. Could be an EP 101 experiment.
