www.ebaumsworld.com or come chat

yeah I've seen the smile generator

I try to be good and not chat at work.....about 1 hour to go.....

I want a duckbill now. Geez. And whats up with the images on the site, or is it just my computer?

I wasn't able to get on the board at all from work, and now everything's screwed up for me at home... No pics are working...

Can we set up a donation pot so we can get some better webspace? I'd be more than happy to contribute...

patience.....dave said they are handling it....

Question:

Why is it that coffee retains heat better then tea? Am i the only one who notices this?

Let me answer your question with another question.

Ever wonder why coffee with milk or some type of cream stays hot longer then just plain black coffee?

Same principle is probably at work with the tea vs. coffee question.....and yes.....I do know the answer...

I just had a thought: Do you realize it's pitch black inside an engine? No light whatsoever? Under the valve covers, darkness. In the crankcase, black. In the cylinders, no light. How do the gremlins see what they're doing in there???

Josh - Specific heat?

subyluvr2212 - Maybe they carry glow-in-the-dark thing that occasionally get exposed to the light from combustion and glow long enough to let them do their job?

Gremlins have those big ears. I think they rely on some form of echo location... Inside an engine it must be like a dog trying to differentiate smells on a search for missing kids.

Gremlins are like electric eels, thats how they damage electronics so easy. They can also produce their own light like a firefly.

yeah....that is one of them....

The other is equilibrium and how it relates to the second law of thermo/entropy.

those are two main things, milk does change the rate at which coffee/milk mixture will loose heat. Simply put, milk does act like an insulator.

here's some reading....

the viscosity of the milk keeps the liquid warm for longer, right? I dont wanna read, I'm lazy.

I'm with laurel on this one. I'll just take your word for it.

Viscosus coupling coffee?
