[AT] Carburetor Icing (Off Topic) and last post, I hope

[Larry D Goss]

It's interesting that you should mention that, George, because there are 
times when I empty a gas tank into an open steel pan, and the vapor pressure 
of the gasoline is low enough that with the wind blowing across the top of 
the pan, the gas cools off and condensate forms on the outside of the pan 
from moisture out of the air.  I probably shouldn't have mentioned this 
because it will be used as an example of wind chill.  The fact that you are 
talking about closed vessels where the vapor pressure equalizes will also be 
overlooked.   :-)

I'm sorry to make "just one more post."  The devil made me do it.

Larry
