Kelvins Centigrades and Fahrenheits

Well, see for yourself:

As for the discussion on the scale to use: the good thing about Celsius
is that the sign actually has a meaning, with your dahlias and tomatoes
collapsing at 0°C. The use of Kelvin is the best alternative from a
physical point of view, but wouldn't reflect the human perception of
temperature. it would at least remove physical nonsense like "yesterday
it was twice as hot (or, physically worse, twice as cold) as today" from
everyday language. since I haven't grown up with Fahrenheit the only
plus on that scale I can think of are the conveniant temperature levels
for the Deno-Method with 40 and 70 F...

At the risk of being redundant, repetitive and redundant, Garak wrote it
has recently been warmer than usual by 4 degrees Centigrade or Kelvin / 7.2
degrees Fahrenheit in his part of Germany.
