Quote:From myth busters website:


"A fan wrote in and asked a follow up question: "Does the color of a car affect the way it heats up?". The MythBusters used two identical cars, one black the other white and left them both out in the summer heat with thermometers in both. By mid-afternoon the black car had heated up to a temperature of 135 °F while the white car topped off at 126 °F, almost 10 degrees cooler."


Sounds like black vs white does make a difference. Check your facts, people.

I think their is a bigger difference in cars then people but the effect is still probably miminal. I think mental and human skin do make a big difference. Also the placebo effect that an earlier poster mentioned should be taken into account as well. I wonder what the stat line is for win percentage when wearing a color advantage in hot games.
