| Summary: | |
| While drinking coffee in Starbucks, Pamela and Nickie wonder if there would be a better way to make a better coffee cup that will keep the heat inside more. This opens the discussion of heat, heat transfer and temperature. Later on, Darly joins to the conversation and talks about their broken refrigerator, leading to the conversation to the fundamentals of thermodynamics. | |
