This seemed totally preposterous to me, since it would be noticable in water
from the tap. So I looked it up

According to the table at
http://www.science.uwaterloo.ca/~cch...23/liquid.html

it is 1.002 cP at 20C and .653 at 40C. Your 10 degrees F is about 5C, so
you would get a change of about 0.1 cP, not a factor of 2.

Clearly you are not worth arguing with.
