  • Nuclear power and the myth of hot water loss

    I get this knee jerk comment a lot. Ever since I first published my suggestion in the early 1980s. Everyone knows that hot water cools down fast when transported long distances, right?

    But what you know, based on your intuition, is mostly not based on scientific facts. Unlike all the people that publishes such cock sure statements based on intuition, I am a scientist.

    I'm not into pissing contests, I'm out. However, I get the idea now why nobody ever responds to your bright ideas.

    Quite common stuff around here for insulating buildings. What do you use?

    Removing people suffering from the Dunning-Krger effect, from any kind of discussions, is only positive. I increases the S/N ratio considerably.
