As a guy who's been awfully close to many fuel fires i have my own ideas of how hot they get and what will and won't melt or weaken. The ideas you have would mean fire is simply not containable. Barbeques, fire places, gas and diesel engines, Bic lighters and candles would all be like bombs. It would be impossible to design a building that wouldn't collapse if your wild theories are right.
I'm off for a week, so the comebacks need not be too snappy.  |
Thermal expansion is not a wild theory of mine; it’s empirically shown time and time again in a controlled lab setting. Did you even bother to read the article about thermal expansion? If you can not even accept the simple, proven concept of thermal expansion, there is no since of discussing this with you, I guess this is why this topic has gone back into the paranoia. Please take the time and enroll in a physics class at your local community college, maybe then you will start to understand the wonderful scientific world we live in.
Willravel it’s been a pleasure discussing this with you, but I’m tired of defending simple scientific concepts here, I’d like to continue this discussion with you, if your interested, PM me
