| That's right. Could be the hotter than 314K today. Funny, but it only feels like 565Ra. My wife says it only feels like 28.5°Rø. The KMA, which is usually chains to furlongs off in such matters, says it may top 90°D. Weather Underground predicts 32°Ré. So be sure and drink at least 10-20 extra gills of water. |

| My apologies for using the temperature reading standard for the most powerful and influential economy the world has ever known. I guess I must be a culturally insensitive brute. |

Give it a rest.
It's funny and nothing to fight about. |

Actually, yes, let's keep this funny and light. But you should also know it is only the unwashed masses in the US that use Imperial measurement. NASA, all branches of the military, the Civil Aviation Authority, all scientific papers and journals, all products designed for export etc., etc., etc., use the metric system. |

| I dunno. Was the OP intended to be funny or to be a jab at Americans? (Or both.) You tell me. |

I think you are over-sensitive about the issue.
Edit: I'm not American, so maybe other American's can weigh in on it. |

Probably a jab at you personally, for obvious reasons. |

I'm over sensitive? I'm not the one who started the thread. I just calmly replied, laughing while I did it. |

Sorry, I meant obvious to everyone else. You will remain oblivious, of course. |

| Yes, you are right. The trolls are much wiser than I am. The world's brightest and most successful minds (like yourself) come to Dave's ESL cafe and start e-fights there. |
