Lennart, my comment wasn't directed at you but at Axil's question: "Do I need to spell this out any further?" After giving temperature numbers as though they represented energy or power. I tend to dismiss Axil's asserted-as-fact speculations posing as theory, if for no other reason than their tone -- but this takes the cake.
