Fahrenheit the true inventor of degree temperature.

| We architectural types tend to use units.
Check this out, about the 180 degree part...
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fahrenheit
Fahrenheit was the 1st to equate degrees to a
scale of temperature (212 - 32) =180 = semi
circle), then later the "centigrade scale" was
defined, 0-100, bla-bla-bla, ok fine.
But then the frogs hijacked the degree scale
by using Celius *degrees*, you see my point,
that's a trademark violation. I'm pissed off
because C degrees hijacked Fah. it should
remain Centigrade, I'm ok with that.
I think it's unlawful for the frogs to hijack the
degree scale defined by Fah, I'm trying to
keep a bit a class on this planet...
What do you think, and please do not answer
until everyone else has had an opportunity to
reply.
TIA

| Sounds like as good of a reason for a class-action law suit as some of
them that I've seen.
