Paris.19.15.14.18.19.19.19.20.30.15.14.12.13.15.15

These are the low temperatures for Paris for the next two weeks......in

degrees Celsius if you cretins out there don't know how to convert
Celsius to Fahrenheit the formula is: multiply the Celsius temperature
by 18. Divide the answer by 2.5. Now add 64.

Add 40 to the Celsius, multiply by 1.8, and subtract 40 to get
Fahrenheit is a lot simpler and easier to remember.

To go from F-C, add 40 to F, multiply by 5/9, and subtract 40 to
get Celsius. Same formula with only the multiplicative factor
different.

First, note that that was Cochon forging my name again.

One can also use reference points, 0°C is, of course 32F
10°C is 18*F above 32F giving 50°C. 20°C is another 18° higher
or 68°F and 30*C os still 18°F more or 86*C. 40*C is then
104*C

For guess in between, like what is 34*C, one just take
86* and add 4 x 1.8 which is about 99°F.

There is no forgery to a nickname !!

While a conversion factor of 2 is not precise, you can do pretty
well as long as you remember a few temperatures: 10C is 50F, 20C
is 68F and 30C is 86F and use 2 on the differences. For example,
14C is 57.2F and the approximation would give 58. The numbers
for the two higher values are easy to remember and most people
can multiply and divide by 2 mentally :-).

Hey pops! I used your formula and plugged in 18° Celsius. it converted to 193.6° Fahrenheit. Havre you com^letely lost it or what? Asshole!

Thanks.

Morro Bay, knew it at one time. When we lived in
the LA area we'd drive north, hit San Luis and go over to
Morro Bay to head further north on Highway 1. I don't remember
staying there, sometimes we would stop at Cambria Pines,
but usually 30 miles south of Big Sur, a place (Lucia) which
has a small number of cabins. It was primitive in the sense
that the power generators when off at 10PM and one had
to use candles for light.

I do too. I especially remember going to a restaurant that incinerated
fresh fish over a BBQ.
We had home BBQd sardines wrapped in vine leaves this evening. They
weren't incinerated. The leaves were from our own vines.


They have to be cooked slowly and with plenty of olive oil
basted from time to time. Cooking fish on an open grill
is a delicate process. In Greece we order it often.

Sardines are one of the cheapest fish in a French fish
market. The natural oil is "good for you", the omega
stuff. Our visits to the Big Sur were in the 1950s
(and later) not too many people. I don't know now but some of
the areas had no power. We used to come across on
the dirt roads from the Salinas Valley, over the
Santa Lucia Mountains. In some of the creeks around
Lucia are the last southern stands of coastal
redwoods. My wife had visited it as a child in the
1940s.

For those of us who are mathematically challenged, it is far easier to
multiply by 9, divide by 5 and add 32.

It is also much more accurate. The formula above converts 20 degrees
Celsius to 208 degrees Farenheit, which is a bit off. The correct
answer is 68 degrees Farenheit.

It's even easier to just visit onlineconversion.com. :0)

BTW: I love Morro Bay. I have had many memorable experiences there
(and in nearby Cambria). I'll never forget wading out far into shallow
Morro Bay, edging closer to the amazing giant rock, and stepping on a
skate (ray). The thing darted out from underfoot, throwing me backward
into the water. I guess my footfall really scared it, but it returned
the favor tenfold.
