Quote (stevestory @ Mar. 12 2006,09:25) | Quote | This is off topic but I thought all the youngsters here should know that “degrees Kelvin” was the proper expression from 1954 until 1967 when the International Bureau of Weights and Measures decreed degrees be dropped. This is sort of like the U.N. decreeing that French is the international language of diplomacy. Some decrees are accepted to a greater “degree” than others. | Is there a word for how pathetic that statement is? |
May I propose 'Davetastic'?
