Hello LUG
In Natchitoches it is cold, +5 C (41 F) I ran across this clever thing on another International List (not Photo-related.) Since we have neighbors well to the North on this list, so far North we don't even call them Yankees when they visit Natchitoches, I thought I'd share.
BTW, if you want to get a temperature conversion, put this formula into Google: (number) f = ? C or (number) C = ? F
