> I am deliberately not giving conversions to Fahrenheit

But I spent all that effort learning what temperature water boils at in Fahrenheit. Who the hell is going to remember what that temperature is in Celsius??




100°C , that should be simple enough :)


Okay, so boiling water happens to be a convenient number. But my point surely stands for the temperature where water freezes?! Metric makes no sense.


You mean 0°C?

What makes no sense is your hyperbolic rejection of metric.


I am pretty sure sjwright is being sarcastic.


Nope. It depends on atmospheric pressure. Do your own units for that too? ;-)


I think you missed the joke there...
