Not my words but essentially those of a Professor in fabric technology
at a UK university.

You have a professor at a UK university who thinks places in the US
routinely have 80C temperatures? That's 176F; doesn't happen.

Making a lot out of a typo, aren't you?

Might explain the state of education in the UK...

Don't get me started on US education....but we could start with the mad
Zero Tolerance system (e.g. the student punished for having a miniature
baseball bat in his car - yes, a trophy awarded by that very school...)
