Heat transfer is not instant. It is proportional to the difference in temperature between the two objects. I assume you know that.

Lowering the bottle into very hot water for a short time will warm the syrup. The water may be too hot to touch but the bottle is not necessary too hot to touch after being dipped.

    It's because one of the basic ideas of free market capitalism, that competition between suppliers will drive down prices to the lowest sustainable point, is a lie.

    Everyone selling anything aims to be a price taker. That is, rather than sell for the lowest price that keeps them afloat they sell for the highest price they can get.

    Sorry, I must have been misled by the way you parrots mens' rights talking points such claiming feminists believe

    that men are all bad because a woman experienced just a couple of bad apples.

    and that

    women should have advantageous edges over men

    But I can see from your measured and articulate response that you are definitely not one of those men who overreact and might be considered a bad apple.
