    Now, Leonard -40F and -40C occur at roughly the same point.  Have 
  your 
    ever participated in amateur radio emergency communications outdoors 
    when the temp was -40? 
    
    I've been outdoors working when the temperature was -30 F. 
    
   
   -40C and -40F are not roughly the same point, they are EXACTLY the same 
   point. 
   
   (Celsius * 9/5) + 32 = Fahrenheit 
   (-40C * 9/5) + 32 = -40F

  Unless any of you can produce licensure or credentials in meteorology 
  or atmospheric science, I'm going to have to consider your comments 
  suspect.

 Actually that would have to be metrology (the science of measurement) since 
 temperature is not limited to weather.

Not limited to weather, however, the context -was- weather.  I'll 
allow you to slide on this one if you can produce licensure or 
credentials in "metrology."
