says...
The energy arriving from a cold body is not enough to maintain the
temperature of the hot body, which is emitting black body radiation at
a greater intensity and so it cools.

What you utterly fail to appreciate, is that the warmer body is **not** being cooled by the 'cold radiation' from the cooler one


You are not reading, again!

It is beginning to look to me as though Alistair maybe looking at the

little wrong with the quote above. If only he had just left out the term
'black body'....
