temperature

[edit]

I changed "100°F" to "1,000°F". I have no reference, but Dr. Fahrenheit defined 100° on his temperature scale as human body temperature. So that 100°F could not possibly cause any worker any trouble. It is the temperature of the person standing next to you in the elevator. Nick Beeson (talk) 21:27, 9 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
