Re: [Hornlist] Trick question
Spit STOPS at the leadpipe though :P It sticks to the edges. I clean my leadpipe out every week or so btw. Now as to the spit question. Spit gets just as far as the front part of the leadpipe and usually stops. I don't know about you, but I never was able to spit more than a foot, much less 33 or so feet :) -William In a message dated 1/13/2003 12:22:14 PM Pacific Standard Time, [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: > Subj:Re: [Hornlist] Trick question > Date:1/13/2003 12:22:14 PM Pacific Standard Time > From:mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]";>[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Reply-to:mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]";>[EMAIL PROTECTED] > To:mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]";>[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent from the Internet > > > > On Mon, 13 Jan 2003 [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > > > Its condensation allright.

Something is wrong with this picture - if flakes constitute evidence of spit, and spit-flakes get as far as the mouthpiece, then spit will get into the leadpipe also.

Its condensation allright. On a bet, I collected about two days worth of it into a little jar to prove that it wasn't spit. What I ended up was just a jar of oily water :) And to prove it wasn't spit, well its easy.

Re: [Hornlist] Trick question
Now, as we are all taught, it is not spit, it is CONDENSATION that collects in the horn. Actually, most of it is indeed condensation. When you consider what the alcohol content in the condensate must be to significantly depress the freezing point, it staggers me (literally) to think of the amount of alcohol one must consume.

Re: [Hornlist] Trick question
You're wrong, Jim Buchholz, there is too a "wind chill factor" for your horn, and its value is 1. What you meant is there is no "wind chill effect."

I'll guess that your horn *is* affected by wind chill because you are part of the system when you play it. If there is no wind, then heat takes longer to dissipate. In particular, as you play your horn in freezing temperature and no wind, it takes longer for the water in the leadpipe to freeze. As the wind increases, you would have to play faster or louder - blow more (warm) air into it - to keep the tube from sealing up with frozen spit. Better you should have the flu if you have to play in a freezing wind - a high fever - your extra hot spit might get you through the piece. Or you might prepare by ingesting sufficient alcohol so that the liquid that enters your leadpipe resembles antifreeze. And playing low notes will help as the expansion is less than for high notes, so less heat is lost at the end of the mouthpiece. { David Goldberg: [EMAIL PROTECTED] } { Math Dept, Washtenaw Community College } { Ann Arbor Michigan } ___ Horn mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://music.memphis.edu/mailman/listinfo/horn
