When the tongue makes contact with the pole, the heat is rapidly
transferred, cooling the tongue and forcing the body to send warmth in
the form of blood and heat energy. The problem is that, today, most
metal flag poles are made up of aluminum or steel (an iron alloy with
carbon), making them fine heat conductors. The pole absorbs the heat
quite readily, literally sucking the warmth from your tongue faster than
your body can supply it. The saliva on your tongue then freezes
(provided it is below freezing), with the resulting ice latching onto
the flagpole and your very porous tongue. You are stuck. Materials that
are less ideal conductors of heat won't provide this same rapid effect,
nor even in many cases are they capable of cooling the surface of your
tongue faster than your body can heat it to keep it above freezing. In
some cases, the material might even have an insulating effect.
