9 March 2014 - Kelvin thermostat

I think that you’re only a real nerd if your home thermostat reads in Kelvin. Let’s see if any nerds can be found.

seeker: What scale is your home thermostat set in?
Normal: What?
seeker: You know, Celsius, or Fahrenheit, or what?
Normal: Fahrenheit, here in America.
seeker: And yours?
Weird: Tapirs per fakir!
seeker: Uh, moving right along, what about yours?
Smart: Electron volts. It seemed simplest.
seeker: That’s, um, energy, not temperature.
Smart: Oh, do you not know thermodynamics? There’s a fun wrinkle for humidity. Where’s a whiteboard?
