Great. Should be a simple fix.

To answer your questions:

1. No (though it might be easier). The bus contents are "cached" for up to 2
minutes. If you use the "uncached" directory, you should force an immediate
re-read.
2. According to the datasheet (for the DS18S20-PAR which I assume is what
you have) http://datasheets.maxim-ic.com/en/ds/DS18S20-PAR.pdf pin 3 is NC
-- not connected.
