Rankine [1] brings you the best of two worlds: Starting at scientific 0 degrees, but using the convenient degree scale defined by some obscure water-salt-mixture and a the slight fever of the average gentoo-dev poster. :-) cheers, Wernfried [1] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rankine --=20 Wernfried Haas (amne) - amne (at) gentoo.org Gentoo Forums - http://forums.gentoo.org forum-mods (at) gentoo.org #gentoo-forums (freenode) --E13BgyNx05feLLmH Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.7 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFGm9JIK/GNBBblp4ARAsr2AKCExPoT0vBMLtg+T0dmqwjho3GcYwCfUiWx BP2LP++UwjXBv0KKSpP1MLs= =5Ykr -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --E13BgyNx05feLLmH-- -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
