Lem. I have read many times that carbon brakes "like" to be used hard and become more efficient the hotter they become.

Am a trifle mystified about this theory (or fact). Could you explain in clear and concise terms (I am a pilot with doubtful grasp of engineering theory - and I am serious about that, unfortunately) why this is so? Thanks in advance.
