NUMBER DUEX!
This one actually stumped me.. I stopped for about 2 and a half minutes trying to think..
I thought clay was stuff that kids [and myself from time to time] played with..
That colourful stuff.. Some kids eat it.. Dunno what that's about..
[Play-Doh]
Or maybe that other stuff.. The more 'adult' clay..
Y'know, the stuff that they make models and table wear out of..
['Adult' clay]
Clay is , I believe, thicker and denser than mud..
[Look at me sounding all smart and knowledgeable.. haha]
I guess..
Clay is dirt plus water..
Mud is dirt plus ALOT of water..
What's your answer..?

Actually, clay is clay minerals plus some water, depending on the type of clay. Kid's clay, more commonly referred to as "Play-Doh," is actually, according to Wikipedia, "water, a starch-based binder, a retrogradation inhibitor, salt, lubricant, surfactant, preservative, hardener, humectant, fragrance, and color," plus oil and borax to keep it smooth and prevent molding.
