yes, I know that. The easiest way to show this is to get temp probe. Measure the ambient temp, then stick it into some water, measure the temp, take the probe out and sit it in air. there will be some water on it, which quickly evaporates, taking some heat energy away from the air and the probe, so the probe may drop down to 20C or so when the water temp is 23C and ambient is 25C. Then within a minute or so, the probe goes back to ambient
