Not hot, and sincr its warm to my skin id have to say it must be around 100 degrees.

I dont know why your lather drops in temp in seconds. Sound very odd to me! You said the second sip of soup is cold to you. I wonder if you just dont feel heat like most. I can have a cup of soup and have to let it sit for a few minutes before enjoying. Same with a cup of coffee. Its better after a few minutes but still hot!
Second sip is fine when I'm outside, at a restaurant, at work, in my parents house, or during christmas holidays when I went for vacation to mexico. I don't understand why people keep misunderstanding. My situation has nothing to do with ME per say, but me trying to overcome a unique situation where the environs is very dry and cold (it's not just the cold, even cold air will not cool drinks that fast, cold and dry together is what does the trick).
