What does your intuition say? What are your test results? Why not find out?

I heard Brian Greene on the YMIW podcast give a similar answer... he had been asked at a conference if there is any truth to the statement that 'hot water freezes faster than cold water.'

He said he wishes people with access to hot water, cold water, and a freezer would actually try to find out on their own rather than driving to a conference and waiting for the Q&A section to ask someone else.

I love that i got downvoted in a linux thread for giving a proper answer. how fuckin hard is it to change a bit in a file and run an md5sum against it? less time than it would take to post a shitty question on here. this is the essence of linux and yet we're still coddling imbeciles.
