Anu ideas why the USA hasn't changed to the Centigrade system?
Only a handful of countries use fahrenheit today.

Centigrade makes a much more logical system.
Centigrade: 0C is freezing and 100C is boiling.

I think 100F was supposed to be human body temperature. I'm not sure
about 0F.

Anyway, I'd prefer something based on the world (like centigrade) to
something that exaggerates our own importance. Also, metric units are
chosen to make calculations easier.
