I half filled two identical drinking glasses with water.and placed them
in
the freezer. one glass had 60 degree water and the other had 80 degree
water. It took a little over an hour for the "cold tap filled" glass to
form crystals while the "warm water filled" was still without crystals.
The
odd part was that both waters were at the same temperature after 1 hour
and
15 minutes, yet the cold water filled was much more crystalized. Go
figure!!


Toying with us again, Jerry, or just trolling? g

I must have been obscure with my explanation about testing the theory that
"hot water" will freeze more quickly than "cold water".
I assume the theory is correct, but only under special-limited conditions.

Tell me what I made obscure, or 'trolllike'.

I got the feeling you were being coy about the reason the two glasses
were stuck at the same temperature -- the large heat of fusion of water.
Was I mistaken?
