Does you monitor not have rest periods each and every day where it`s metabolism slows? In fact in a period of 24 hours they are resting more than they are active (metabolism is lowered).
These "ideas" have been doing the rounds for years; "it`s unhealthy, they'll wear themselves out" (not achieve their potential life spans)?
Can you show some evidence (please)!

I would not insult your intelligence by explaining how temperature effects metabolism.
If you want to present evidence to show that I am wrong, then go for it - I have already presented my evidence, and am not going to indulge you any more with this circular arguing, its pretty tedious.
