>>even "metric countries" have been known to use it. Name few/any? ---- Even though I do remember the formula C=5/9*(F-32), Fahrenheit has never felt convenient or range non-arbitrary. Zero being the freezing point in Celsius is a lot more important when it comes to weather conditions (provided the autumn/winters are cold enough where you live) - icy roads, clearing/scrapping windshields, skiing, etc. The boiling point is nothing to scoff at even when it comes to simple cooking.
