I wonder if all those global warming scientists used that code.

How 'bout Basites and Sharpites. Doesn't that have more of a diseased ring to it. :)

I thought VB was a disease. You mean its a programming language as well? :doh: They probably typed the following: Return (m_value - 32) / 1.8 and got a Cannot implicitly convert type 'double' to 'int'. An explicit conversion exists (are you missing a cast?) and wasn't sure what to do so they changed it to 2 :(

The irony of course being that the Celsius property has absolutely nothing to do with the CompareTo method and therefore just complicates the example code. I can see millions of VB programmers defining Celsius properties because they think it's necessary to get CompareTo working ;-)

What about a sharpie that also programs C++?
