Koohii stories:

1) [synewave] 15-10-2006(106): There's an even covering of water lilies on the pond at 金閣寺 (きんかくじ) the Golden Pavilion in Kyoto.

2) [stshores24] 7-9-2008(50): Even if Heisig showed me in person, I still wouldn't believe that this is a water lily. I don't get it.

3) [bihzad] 9-4-2008(28): The graph of an even function [f(x)] will be symmetrical over the y-axis, as this kanji appears to be.

4) [Spidercat] 28-2-2008(23): If you take scissors and cut off the upper part of its primitive and then close your scissors, you get an even kanji.

5) [tharvey] 22-7-2009(19): This is even as in flat, level, smooth, calm (not like "even if" or "even though").
