Hi Larry :)
   An Aussie, whom I met while doing a "round the US on the train" trip, gave me
a quick formula for converting Celsius to Fahrenheit and it works :) it can even
be done by someone who went to Portland Public Schools for math :) hehehe

       Fahrenheit temp approximately equals  (2 * Celsius Temp) + 30 degrees

This works well for me :)   Tho it gets off when you test it against the one
poinnt at which the Celsius and Fahrenheit scales are equal :)  Anyone remember
that one ?

Art "Yep, starting a trivia thread :) " Bahrs
