        @eddwilson @ltdaan @neiltyson 0 is seriously cold. 100 is seriously hot. 32 is water freezing temp.

        @DP819 So that's two of you. That certainly works (a bit) for human experience, but it's utterly arbitrary for science. @ltdaan @neiltyson

        “@masundbe: @neiltyson what is '1944' in metric? :)” Best equivalent is '1944CE'. BCE & CE are lame, but some publishers use it.

        @neiltyson I've alway wondered are the devices/ways they use now more accurate in getting the temp than what was used in say 1944?
