Okay, I have been skipping a lot of messages since I am flooded with work
and email.  What in the name of Blue Blazes is Carnot's cycle?

Are your trying to start a flame war?  Remember it is Carnot's
cycle and I don't think that this list appreciates cycles on the trail.

It was fall and my p chem tgeacher was trying to teach the
intracies of the Carnot Cycle.  About half way through the lecture a
motor cycle went by.  It did not have a muffler and it was very loud.
THe lecture said "That is definitely not a carnot's cycle."  You had
to be there.  Definitely a science geek type of joke.
