Possibly but the over complicated equation used in herpetology to explain thermoregulatory behavior has not led to the production of "beans". And provides me with few citations to see it as credible when applied to actual animals. The variables in the equation seem to be irrelevant and out of context for many animals.

If your equation does not work with captive reptiles and Frank's MAY not work with wild reptiles but we can see actual tangible evidence of his theory working what are we to believe. Don't just try to discredit him with "it's over your head" state how reptiles use temps differently than what he proposes and how you came to that conclusion. I'd like to see repeated results. Frank sure has provided that in captivity and documented thermoregulatory behavior in wild herps for decades.
