NASA finds water reservoir equivalent to 140 trill...
Tip: "I'd love to explain it, but (I won't)" comes across as extremely elitist, and to some people, quite repugnant. If that's not how you mean to come across, simply omit that first bit before the comma, and you will come across much more amicably.

That's a great tip, thanks. I really meant that I'd love to explain it, but you're right that it doesn't come across that way :)
