If it were up to me, zero would be the freezing point of fresh water and 100 would be body temperature. Now, there's a temperature scale you can relate to, or vice versi.

I don't suppose we in northern Michigan should complain about our cold winters. It doesn't get all THAT cold here; only 39 degrees Hafoc below zero today (or 6 degrees f, -12 C or so). The lake effect has kicked in, though. It snowed all day, and we might get another six inches overnight.

Might decide to take a snow day. Just stay inside and watch it fly. It sounds kind of nice.

I think you took the 3:2 conversion the wrong way; 6 degrees F would be -39 degrees Havoc. 100 Havoc degrees cover a range of ~67 degrees Farenheit, so a Havoc degree is about .67 of a degree F, and 26 degrees F below freezing would be 39 degrees H below.

Yer right. The formula should be h=3/2 (f-32). Actually I think I subtracted the 32 outside of the parentheses or something. I've corrected it now.

Does go to prove one thing though. You can post anything and nobody will care, but make one little mistake... :)
