I don't see it as being any more efficient, when not just use
Fahrenheit?

Temperatures could be given in °K, provided everyone knows the conversion
factor. Since Usenet is international, it's best to use international
conventions. If you want a response in Usenet, English, even the broken
variety, is the language of choice. Babelfish can only do so much.



One would think that if he's wanting to use Fahrenheit that a move to
Rankine (Absolute Fahrenheit) would be the better option.
Be nice to hear that your processor idles at about 550°R

The only real difference is that °c is based on 100 graduations between
waters freezing point and waters boiling point.

Kelvin is simply °c + 273.2
