Aqua 1.0 "gone blue"

Aqua has been submitted, and should appear on the App Store soon.

It is a toy "Entertainment" App, which allows you to swoosh around some simulated liquid on your phone.  The physics are based on a binary compound fluid dynamics simulation, with coloring applied based on a trifurcated density map.  You can also use the touch screen to poke around!
