When I think back to my High School Physics (a couple of hundred years ago) I do recall learning that it takes 80 times as much energy to change state than it does to change the water temp. 1 degree C. Not sure if that has f**K all to do with this. :lol...

I wonder if that would be due to looser molecular structure? Back when I was taking science I think they had just arrived at what water is!

I didn't study it in depth, just enough to find out Gerry had a valid point and me (being an agreeable guy) like to give credit where it's possible. :lol:

Apparently- at least in some circumstances.

The hot water still has to pass through the temperature of the cold water before it freezes, which was my reasoning. :smile: Looks like you are right Gerry. You learn something new every day! :smile:

Yeah, right! :lol::lol:

That analogy crossed my mind too. :smile:

What part of Sask are you located?

In the end She definitely will, but man can sure f**K things up in the meantime. How long will it take Mother Nature to take care of Exxon Valdes?

I think stable means remaining the same for a period of time, could be a week, a month, a year or a thousand years, but definitely not forever! :lol:

That will be nice, now there will be rush for the first person to swim at the North Pole and that will attract vendors and pretty soon it will be like Coney Island! :lol:

The thought is tempting...............until you think about who could replace them, then it gets SCARY! :lol:

C.B.C. radio just interviewed a local farmer a couple of minutes ago. While there is an 8% unemployment rate in the Okanagan, it is necessary to import workers in order to get crops harvested on time for market!!!!!!!!!!! Anyone see a problem here? :smile:

Apparently agreement has been reached for a one year contract and zero raise, but beyond that the news is sketchy. Anyone heard anything further? Tentative deal announced in B.C. teachers' dispute - British Columbia - CBC News

Yep, I'm pretty leery about statistics (without knowing all the details) eg. you can record thousands of temperatures under dozens of conditions but what good are they if you find out later the thermometers were never tested? :lol:

So, to put what you are saying in a nutshell is there is a huge difference between 59.99 degrees and 60.01 degrees if elephants die at 60.00 degrees.............................gotcha! :lol:
