Ooh! Ooh! Complex-matter-PhD-boy can't resist! There's more than just those three - gels, for instance (e.g. jelly/jello). And things which appear solid but slowly flow, e.g. glass (well, glass that we see every day is pretty close to solid, but some glasses flow more quickly). And cornflour in water!

I think my points are pretty much irrelevant to Xietor's post though. And of course, most things are pretty much solid, liquid or gas. Just thought I'd add to the geekiness of the thread.
Allow me to carry this to a level of geekiness that could possibly allow me to ascend to geek godhood.

So our dilemma here is how can petrification possibly impact the animated dead and the visually impaired?

Perhaps, the petrification wavelength need only touch the retina - whether the retina itself works is irrelevant. This avoids the sticky issue of how the undead see, which I am guessing looks something like the Predator.
