I was brought up on Fahrenheit, but soon adapted to C which is so
straightforward for everyday use once you get used to it and you soon
get used to it. It's so much more logical with 0 being freezing and a
100 for boiling, IMO.


It's never become inate for me;

fnC=@(F) (F-32)./1.8;
fnC(649.45)

ans =
343.0278


343 C just doesn't correlate to Tsat@2200, sorry...yes, I know they
cross at -40 and STP and all that, but it "just ain't natural".
