If a bicyclist rides for 45 minutes at 10 mph when it's 6 degrees C in a
rainstorm in the dark, upon arrival at home, for how long does she have to shower with water at 41 C before her toes thaw out? -- Warm Regards, Claire Petersky http://www.bicyclemeditations.org/ See the books I've set free at: http://bookcrossing.com/referral/Cpetersky |

Does that include hubby rubbing them after they come out of the frozen shoes? It's below 0 C here of a morning. Gonna have to start wearing warmer shoes? Charles of Schaumburg |

We need to know the size of her toes and her heartrate. BTW, given the question shouldn't that be "Frozen Regards"? just plain regards, Bob Hunt |

Until the water coming out of the shower head isn't considered warm an longer.
