An American baker is happy baking cookies in Fahrenheit. A French baker

is
happy baking cookies in Celsius. Does it really matter? My argument is
that it does not, and that any measurement system that claims to be based

on
"natural" relationships is probably not.

And a British baker is happy baking cookies in "Gas Marks". Are these
actually calibrated, or correspond to anything? It confuses me when I watch
Jamie Oliver on the Food Network.
