Oh yes, I am not really a scientific guy but in my Dive mater lesson I was told water carries heat 25 times faster than air does.
Reason is water has 1 of the highest heat capacities of all naturally occurring substances. it takes 3,200 times as much heat to raise a given volume of water specific temperature as it does to raise the same volume of air to the same temp.
And that is why 24°C is warm and comfortable in air but you become chilly in water, air cannot carry your heat away as fast as the same temp water can.
I think it is something else on top of it. I need a bit of time to remember it. The lesson is taught in highschool science class at around grade 10-11ish.
Our Sumerian Stone Age forbears would then take a straw or a ladle and imbibe. We know so, because the Sumerians left us with the oldest graphic depiction of beer drinking. It comes from a seal found at the Sumerian city of Ur and dates from around 3100 BC. It shows two gentlemen using straws to drink beer out of a common crock. The upper-class Sumerian straws used to be made of gold and lapis-lazuli. One such straw was found in the third millennium BC tomb of Pu-abi, a dignified lady of Ur. http://beeradvocate.com/articles/595
