I'm pretty sure Fred meant -40.0 degrees, not -40 and lower.
I did say "is -40", not "is below -40".
BUT, when it does get below -40, I become more concerned with getting
myself unstuck from anything that I'm touching, and finding a warmer
place to be. I would really love to visit Ethan at work, but
realistically, I don't think that I could stand it.
I even gripe about 40 degrees, although C V F will determine WHICH set of
gripes I use.
Would achieving -42 degrees K or R replace this universe with a different
one in a big bang?
