ok. I'm going to try to blog a bit more regularly. I am a theoretical physicist who thinks about everything, especially the brain. I have come up with heaps of really good ideas, such as twenty20 cricket, my SIDS theory, why we dream, how creativity s generated in the brain etc.
my website is at www.justgeorgeous.net.
i also post more details of some stuff on tehre. check it out from time to time.
today, i was working down a well at my place, which is only about 12 feet down. outside it was about 31C and quite humid. i may have been sweating a little, could hardly notice much. when went down the well, it was cooler but more humid, and i started to sweat like crazy. it was pouring off me. literally. my shorts and undies were soak wet. i was like in a shower almost. anyhow why do i sweat more if it is cooler (but more humid). the answer has to do with humidity obviously. is my body sweating more because it cannot get enough evaporative cooling, or is it because my body is trying to set up an equilibrium with the more humid air around me. when water vapour condenses to releases its latent heat of condensation. and my body would get hotter if not for the fact that my body is producing much more water to set up an equilibrium with the air so less or no water from the air gets to condense on me. the temperature felt quite cool as i entered the well. i would be guessing only but about 24-25 C would have been it.
