saw this on an auto forum...curious as to what everyone thinks!

...common fluids: viscosity(approx) *
water at 70deg.F 1
blood 10
antifreeze 15
sae 10 motor or corn oil 50-100
sae 30 motor oil/syrup 150-200
sae 40 motor/ castor oil 250-500
sae 60 motor oil/glycerin 1000-2000
honey 2000-3000
molasses 5000-10,000
peanut butter 150,000-250,000
calking compound 5-10 million
window putty 100 million

Any wonder why at 0-40 engines might use oil ?

As hard as I try I can see no relevance comparing motor oil to window putty/blood/peanut butter/etc.
 
The overriding question assuredly has to be....

did he state what he meant?

One lesson to be learned, I suppose, is the inadvisability to use caulk as a lubricant.
