John,   You forgot to factor in 32 degress for freezing, 32F = 0C.  212 - 32 = 180. .     ______________ ____  |            |  RICH KIM, Spatial Database Administrator \   | |            |  Washington State Department of Ecology  |  //             |  P.O.

Is 1 degree c equal to 1.8 degreesf?  If this is true shouldn't 100 degrees c be equal to 180 degrees f.  The reason i ask this is because isn't 10 degrees c equal to 18 degrees f? Thanks a lot for your help. h
