How many people measure their bath temperature this accurately? Apparently it must be between 100.6F and 102F!

I haven't had a bath in more than 55 years and
don't measure the shower temperature at all, ever.

That explains why you have always been as ugly as sin.

Good grief, and of course the temp will vary throughout the bath both depth
and length wise I'd imagine. A load of tosh.

I've even heard a warning that if you stay in your bath too long (indoors at room temperature!) that you can die!

I'd never heard that, although almost everything else seems to be classed as bad for you.

Long separated by cruel fate, the star-crossed lovers raced across the grassy field towards each other like two freight trains, one having left York at 6:36 p.m. travelling at 55mph, the other from Peterborough at 4:19 p.m. at a speed of 35mph. The brakes decelerate each train at the rate of 1.0 m/s2. Is there a collision? What distance do the trains need to allow between them to stop at this deceleration? What deceleration do the two trains need to have to stop in exactly a distance of 938m?

That can't be right, otherwise the fella backing into his
driveway would have noticed the smell and realised that
there was something smelling awful he was about to back into.

Tho on second thought, he does claim to go for a
swim in the river in winter, starkers, so maybe that's
why he wasn’t stinking as bad as he usually does.

It is the AIR that is at 110C - chucking water on the stones actually cools the room for a while, but it feels hotter due to increased humidity as in Turkish baths.

Ah right, I misread the earlier post and assumes bath to refer to a tub
of water. Surely most people refer to it just as "a sauna" or maybe
sauna room?

Ah right, I misread the earlier post and assumes bath to refer to a tub
of water. Surely most people refer to it just as "a sauna" or maybe
sauna room?


Well, a Turkish bath is the same as a sauna, but with 30% humidity instead of 0%.

I would assume a Turkish bath/steam room to have a humidity approaching
100%, in fact it's more than an assumption, a quick google search
verifies that.

Wrong - if it was, you would be literally boiled alive.

"A sauna is a room made from softwood and incorporates a heater €” either electric or wood-burning €” that is capable of reaching 190° Fahrenheit and up. An average healthy individual can tolerate that kind of heat because it is a dry environment with extremely low humidity."
