2-4 cups a day breathing? I got it from a respirologist that it was 135 ml over 8 hrs (sleeping) for 160 lb person in -5 C temp. I posted the calculations. Why not back up your assertions with data instead of criticising? The OP, Courtney, did find his answer btw, and he also was pleased with my calculation of water produce by burning propane in a cat. type heater. I don't see why this outcome should annoy you so much and you have to keep being sanrky :) alistair On 9-Nov-10, at 7:25 PM, miguel pacheco wrote: Uhm, I did post a clarification, (and a smiley face, which changes everything, doesn't it?) but it's not here for some reason......my point was not to be snarky, but rather, to point out, in my own, abstract fashion, that Courtney's question was not answered by that elaborate calculation. Furthermore (and to add to the crime) three cups of water in six hours in insignificant. Consider that the average human expels 2 to 4 cups of water a day, just by breathing, but the condensation of same is largely dependant on ventilation. If you had sufficient ventilation, these AND the three might be expelled right out the window, not to mention that when you awaken, the opening and closing of doors alone will increase the rate of evaporation, rendering those three cups of water even more insignificant. It's comical that Sullivan, the 'not a math guy,' gave the best, and only, applicable answer, while everyone else, including the OP, lost sight of the original question. Now that's snarky. Miguel
