Using thermic technology, the jacket would have a padding
of
limestone, when a strip is released this would allow
sea/river
water to mix with the limestone and create heat, helping to
warm survivors until help arrives.

I don't know much about thermo technology, but this
sounds like a wonderful idea. If the limestone is activated
by water, it could also be used for saving anyone in cold
conditions providing there was a water pouch within the
jacket. |

So you start off with a jacket full of stones, then flood it with water? That'll make a warm meal for the fishes, i suppose.. |

If Kate Winslet had one on the Titanic she woul'd have
snuffed it would she, maybe. |

Anything that could be used to kill any cast member of that film gets a croisant. You're a genius. |

I don't think giz was trying to kill her, possibly save her in
the freezing temps - maybe? |

Common exothermic substrates (magnesium iron alloy and sodium chloride) produce enough heat to fry you if you don't adjust the quantity used with great care. Me, I think I'd stow a dry suit instead. |

What's all this about cold typists [arora]? |
|
| |
You just can't get friendly staff nowadays. |
|

So either she drowns, freezes or fries, reensure? |

+ Good to use for all the refugees! |

I note that we have not heard from [gizmo] of late. Somebody, back in 2002, should really have explained to her that what is needed is not limestone but quicklime. Limestone is noted for its rapid reaction with water, namely sinking. |

Tell us again why that's a bad thing ... ? |
