if 50 is 10 how come 100 isn't 20? Answer, Farenheit that's why. It's my prefered scale but why did he have to set the freezing point of water at 32? I suppose it was fine when there wssn't a french system in the way. No vait, it came from Sveeden, ya. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Celsius i prefer farenheit though as a lot more precise. You're not messing about with .3, .7, etc, which in everyday celcius life no one uses so it's always 'rough' scale compated to ferenheit., one not suited to indoor heating for eggsample. Wouldn't you rather use a scale 2.5 times more fine than the other? Answer, yes, unless you're in the fking eu. But as I say, he should have really set the scale at the freezing point of water to be zero and not a flapping about in the breeze 32 degrees,... and his folly is why we're all fukcing about today.
