If not, why not?
And do they make a chemical that inhibits (not kills) the growth of plant life so I don't have to mow my damn lawn so often?
*shakes her magic 8 ball* the answer is not clear

A chair cushion that cools instead of heats? If so, do they make similar products for bedding?If not, why not?

You live in Seattle, why do you have a lawn? Also, why do you want it cooler, wasabiatch? IS 67 DEGREES NOT GOOD ENOUGH?

Well I don't live in Seattle, I live in Kent. And it's not the heat so much as the humidity, and I'm sick of my ass sticking to the chair through the fabric of my pants.
If we could speed up cellular reproduction, particularly in plants, affordibly, it would more or less obliterate world hunger. So it's something of a holy grail of science.

Slowing down cellular reproduction would be closely tied to speeding up cellular reproduction.If we could speed up cellular reproduction, particularly in plants, affordibly, it would more or less obliterate world hunger. So it's something of a holy grail of science.
Cool. Sounds like that'll be found by guys like me who just want it so they can get out of mowing the lawn on an almost-weekly basis.

Dr. Pvednes, PhD stopped staring at Deedlit long enough to write:
Heat is a form of energy. Cooler temperatures are just an absence of such energy. Cold does not radiate in the way that heat does, due to not being an energy form. To build such a pillow, one would need something inside it to suck the heat energy out. Lumpy pillow.
The pillow can have thorns jutting out of it for all I care, just as long as it keeps my ass cool.

Oh. Kent, eh. That's what, south of Seattle on I-5? Like, inbetween Seattle and Tacoma? Or Tacoma and the bridge? My geography of Western Washington has started to seriously suck ass.

Southeast of Seattle by about 45min or so, depending on traffic.

I think I bought illegal fireworks from a place near Kent once, was like 80 cents for an M-100, but it acted more like a GD piddly firecracker. I was sadf.
(That was when I was taking a class in the UofW and commuted with my dad from the Peninsula to the U district (about 3 hours each way))
All you'd need would be a stuffing with a very, very high specific heat, and then cool it down a whole lot. It'll absorb a lot of heat energy before it stopped feeling cold.
Thing is, though, that most things with a high specific heat tend to be dense. Maybe some sort of heavy gel...

Which can be good material for cushions and pillows.

Like a medical coldpack, you mean?
Yes, but one that can be kept cold with electrical current.

Verily, JooJooFlop doth proclaim:

maybe with one, or a couple, of those little refrigeration things OC nuts use to keep processors cool...

Instead of having a leather or psuedo leather seat get a fabric one, mine is just this fuzzy cloth and I have never had sweat problems, it jsut kinda absorbs it and then dissapears from evaporation.
Ditto.
