Think of the nozzle on the end of a garden hose. As the opening is made
larger, the water emerges with less pressure. As it gets smaller, the water
emerges under greater pressure, so you can spray the effing salt and snow off
of the beautifully painted sheet metal that you labored over so
painstakingly.....
