This is very interesting. Yet another testimonial for Wall- o-Water.
I've never tried them so can't comment from personal experience. But I'm
curious. How do they work? Why do peppers like them? I'm a natural skeptic and
need plausible reasons before accepting any extrodinary claims.
Please don't give me the "stores heat during the day" and "releases it all night
long" story because I have a thermometer and can easily show that water cools to
ambient very quickly (within minutes) when the sun goes down. So whats the
story? I find WoW's claims to be suspicious.
I don't mind being wrong. Feel free to correct me.
