You can do whatever you wish. By now the laughter surrounding your ridiculous proposition will be audible to even you, as you eat..

So you think, like Dawlish, that the radiation from a cold object will not cool a warmer one?

On this issue, the whole of science thinks like Dawlish.

You don't, which is a pity, really. *))
