well seeing how you have chosen too enter a friendly debate between friends on a sarcastic note,and have chosen too not add a thought of your own,you simply chose too echo brett's response,who I assure you needs no help.your post really warrants no response from me,but why don't you try your little soda experiment and when you find that if both volumes are the same diameter containing the same liquid all other parameters are the same barring one is taller then the other,they will both reach the same temp at the same time.let us know
Yes I am quite squirmy.
I didnt mean to bud into somones friendly "debate", I just noticed that the "arguments" you were making were bogus, I thoght I'd throw in my two cents for all the readers who may not recognize that your claims were false. I wasnt trying to condecend you or imply that Bret needed my help in handling you. I just wanted to second his position and offer a simple analogy. I meant no offense.
luke your simple analogy suggests that if you took 5 or more cans of soda and stacked some vertically next too a single can the stacked ones would some how cange temperature at a different rate,is that not bogus and false?
I should clarify my statmet. I didnt want to get too technical, and I still don't. When I said one can was three feet tall I meant that It was three feet tall but still had the same proportions as the smaller can.
As far as this discussion goes that doesnt really mater. Both the taller can and the stacked can configurations will lose temperature slower then the single can. The three foot can with the same proportions as the small can will loose temp at an even slower rate then the other cans.
No, it is not bogus or false.
Its not a mater of sudjesting this or asuming that. Its simple physics. But as far as ALL THINGS BEING EQUAL tort cold hardyness is concerend this really doesnt matter.
