    So ignore those people, and accept Celsius as the norm!

      There's no reason to insult Fahrenheit.

      First, he died in 1736, so you would be much too late.

        UDHR Article 19. Or if you ignore the world outside your own country (as one may be tempted to suspect): First amendment.

            The entire point is that the entire World minus a handful of places uses Celsius and metric.

            So. That wasn't the point of my post. Work on that reading comprehension. If you want to use popularity as the _only_ metric to determine whether or not something is good or bad, then I suggest you start paying attention to Kim Kardashian, otherwise you're a hypocrite. Now, are you done proving my point about the superiority complex people on CP have? Just can't accept something different?

              Also, talking about the boiling point of water doesn't mean I said it's the only thing that changes the boiling point. The point was, it's not a holy grail metric either. In your attempt to "correct" me... you missed the point completely.

              I never heard this argument about Celsius degrees being 'better' because it is based the (freezing and) boiling point of water. Every one knows it was based on that, but not that it makes it 'better'. So you have found one person who says that it makes Celsius 'better' - and you make a big number about this, feeling so grossly insulted that you have to complain about it in social media. Oh well, that is you .... I definitely prefer to work with Celsius, because it fits directly in with other internationally accepted standards in all sorts of science. It simply is far more practical (comparable to switching to larger or smaller units by simply moving the decimal point). If you feel that argument as another insult, feel free to. But don't forget UDHR Article 19.

                      Please do. Tell them that you will deny me my right of speech. And please include my references to UDHR Article 19. You want to censor my voice completely, deny me my right to communicate to others my reactions to your statement. I do not think that CP will honor your censoring request.

                        Please do. Maybe they will consider your posts more harassing than mine. My references to UDHR-19 must be considered appropriate, given your explicit attempts to censor me.

                            Maybe not very relevant to -40 F being equal to -40 C, which would be approx. 233.14 K. I wouldn't be surprised if negative Kelvin is used in some physics models. You can come across e.g. negative speeds (which are not positive speeds in the opposite direction), negative distances, negative whatever. Actually, I'd be surprised if negative Kelvin values never appear in the math of physics (although I can't recall any case were I have heard about it).
