I'm searching for a witty remark about entropy, but my thinking is increasingly chaotic.

I've no idea what celcius is. Celsius on the other hand is synonymous with centrigrade. Whoever said that Celsius is the SI scale for temperature, may have forgotten about Kelvin.

Yeah, but once you start telling people that 0 K is -273 C, then their eyes glaze over and you are sent into the geek corner! (That may not be correct as I have tried my best to erase my early education!!) Best to just keep it simple and worry not!

My daughter said she has about 3ft of snow piled up against the sliding doors...she's 19 floors up. :eek: The heating in the apartment building broke yesterday but they managed to fix it a couple of hours ago.

She's supposed to be driving home from T.O. to New Jersey tomorrow...think she's gonna wait until Tuesday. :(

Not many physics teachers have a good sense of humour. You'll be fine.

Had I not had an ECG a few months back, I wouldn't have dared spend five hours shovelling it either. Souvette climbed on the snowbank next to the driveway. I found myself looking straight at her knees. She had sunk into it up to her knees. It is still snowing. And the plough hasn't been yet. I fear I will be up early tomorrow morning. Real early.
