TAR Podcast #4 with Earl Strickland & Shane Van Boening

[The Renfro]

he is very wise (about pool, and matching up, and gambling, and competition, and sharking people, and being an enigma, and entertaining people...etc)....but he just happened to say something stupid about a/c.

your point would be like saying its cold in here because of the heaters. and then arguing the heaters don't keep up with the cold...so it's the heaters fault it's cold in here. not taking into point how much colder it would be if the heaters weren't even there. a/c reduces humidity. any condensation created by the a/c would have been outside the room.

don't defend the undefendable. it wasn't an attack on him as a person...it was just a stupid comment.

Actually my point is that if the room has humidity in it, which it will from all of the oxygen breathers sweating the match, that if the balls and rails are cooler than the air and the air is heavy with relative humidity they will suck up moisture from the air.... This is a pretty simple concept and in context Earl is right...

AC can cause condensation by cooling the equipment when the relative humidity is high and remains high due to outside air being introduced by doors opening and closing or from as I said spectators breathing..... AC does remove moisture from the Air that is part of its job but the air has to run over the condenser coils and it is never going to be 100% efficient in humid conditions.....

I doubt Earl could go into all of the science behind relative humidity and temperature but his observation is correct... Living in the south where the summers are hot and humid i don't even think twice about what he was saying because the AC can run non-stop and it's never gonna keep my table dry.....

but the A/C is not the CAUSE....it REDUCES the effect.

AC reduces humidity....... Colder air or objects than the air bearing humidity cause condensation.... Earl said AC can cause condensation... Then he talked about the balls and rails and the balls being cold to the touch..........

Nope...the rails well be alive..an cloth slow.

Nope...the rails well be alive..an cloth slow.

Not sure where you are going with this... His comment was that the spin won't stay on the ball when the table is playing wet... He never said the rails got dead... So maybe the bedcloth slowing down is the reason for the lack of spin???? Just trying to figure out what you are trying to explain or contradict....
