Abstract

The following discussion is a brief investigation into whether it is reasonable to expect a human breathing into a glass under normal conditions to be able to fill it with the water from his/her breath. It finds that using this process it takes more than a day to fill a glass and would not be possible without cooling the glass regularly.
