Thread Name: BS: The world of thermometers
Subject: RE: BS: The world of thermometers
I don't believe a have a thermometer. They're always getting broken and, anyway, who needs 'em. When it's hot, it's hot. When it's cold, it's cold. If I wanna know how hot or cold I just go to weather.com.

And, anyway, thermometers and temperature are hard to talk about here because half the people use the Fahrenheit scale and half the people use the Centigrade scale and nobody's keyboard has a "º" symbol on it so ya have to type out the word "degrees".

But I will tell ya this: I have a really nice pyrometer. It'll tell ya whether something's 2375º (Fahrenheit) or 2380º in a hurry. If you've got anything that needs to be that hot, I'm your man.
