Please review Thompson's observation and explain it to us in terms
of the flow of "heat". Most of us think that it is a proof that
"heat" is not a conserved quantity.
... the thread seems always to come to a point where the opposition
seems to say -- "Well, OK your view is 'correct,' but why can't we
keep doing what we have been doing anyway." ...
I suppose one way to resolve this sort of impasse is to say OK you
don't post messages which imply that "heat flows" (which offends us)
and we won't respond with messages which imply that saying "heat flows
is stupid" (which offends you.) Is that a deal?
