He implied that it did work. I'm not calling him a liar. I don't know that he's a lefty. ;-)
Leaving the water drip would not work in an unheated house.

You're wrong, of course.
Don't pretend to be some wiz-bang science kid. You can't even read.
You're full of shit, but that shouldn't be any news to you.
Assholes hang together, Trader.
Dilbert is not fiction.
It's mollecular allignment, not moving heat from other parts of the house.
In Farmer Bob's house, he's got a well, and pump. And septic. I didn't want to leave it drip, wasn't sure if the septic lines would freeze.
Nope. It's heat. A little drip, or trickle, isn't going to do it.
Septic lines won't (easily) freeze. They should be deep enough, as should the water from the well. Of course, if they were put in by the same moron that put pipes in uninsulated exterior walls...
Come, now. I've provided the scientific evidence that moving water won't freeze because of mollecular allignment. Are you going to continue to deny the facts?
Except that it does. If it didn't, rivers would never freeze.
Rivers have calm spots, where the water isn't moving. I guess you don't know the facts.
I know them well enough. So do pipes. The fact is that super-cooling (nucleation) is only a small factor, relative to heat.
Inquiring minds want to know what exactly is wrong with that? As the poster correctly points out, insulation only delays heat transfer. If you have a pipe that's in an area that is constantly below freezing, it will eventually freeze even if you have 3 ft of insulation around it, unless you get some heat to it somehow.
I see the Cracker Jax engineer is out stalking again. You're just looking for a fight. Again.
Go away, kid.
don't argue with the limbaughnista...it's his way or your a lefty, that's how it is with the fundie addicts
There you have it folks. Typical krw. Makes a post falsely claiming someone is wrong. And when someone else points out that the poster is correct and krw is wrong, he hurls insults and claims I'm looking for a fight.
Mike:
"Insulating the pipe in an environment below freezing without enough heat flow from somewhere, possibly flowing water, does not prevent the pipe from freezing, eventually, no matter how much insulation you put on it. "
krw: "You're wrong, of course. "
Of course Mike is correct. krw, as is so often the case, is the one who is wrong. Add this to krw's list of embarrassments.
he's a fundie and they aren't allowed to admit they are human
Oh, look! Malformed has a new friend. Well, the two of them share a lot of characteristics.
yes, extreme right mr limbaugh
as i didn't quote anything, it would hard to be a fundie
since you lied about me quoting (just above in case you get lost again) you must be telling us that you are a leftie
stop projecting...I know it's very difficult for you to live with yourself, but then again no one else would ever take that chance with you, so get used to it
Yes, I am right. ...and you're wrong about everything. Lies are wrong, by definition.
You're lying again. It is all you can do.
You're lying again.
when's the last time you had a friend?
Unlike you lefties, I don't want liars as friends, Malformed.
