Reminds me of an anecdote that I read about the admirable society of Dubai. Apparently, the law requires that once the officially measured temperature exceed 50C/122F, the slaves (or whatever the official term is) are given the day off from the construction sites.
Anyway, the officially measured temperature tends to never exceed 49C, even when anyone could measure with their own thermometer that it's really hotter.
