This Sunday paper again promotes Fahrenheit. I wrote the following
in response:
I enjoy reading your columns (Sunday HC). Except this Sunday when you
state: ".... Celsius to stay in the science".
I wonder what it is that "... makes it more sensible in the science?"

Perhaps you mean the Kelvin scale, because the Celsius scale is certainly
"sensible" to just about everybody in the world outside the US. And you
know that, of course. Everybody is familiar with water. Setting on the
approximation of 0 and 100 scale is apparently more convenient than
alternatives, Fahrenheit  included.

With the best wishes,
