Am I going to actually hone on a oven fresh stone? No, see the laziness comment above. Is this an insane theory? Ehh, depends on your definition of insane.
However, There is a wide reach of our forum. I'm sure those in Thailand are honing on warmer stones than me in the winter. Why does this matter? As I work with a company that has to deal in microns at times, I understand that small temperature changes can affect things significantly in certain situations. Maybe a 50 degree change one way or the other could influence a stone for better or worse depending on the requirements of the stone.
