Absolutely

[Yossarian]

I was thinking of freezing myself at -273 degrees. My mate says I'll die, but I think I'll be 0K

[VEG]

Well it takes all sorts.

 

[victor meldrew]

If I hear no more from you I'll take it that your mate was correct .

John

 

[VEG]

Nice one John.

Reminds me of the story about Simon Cowell recently who said he was going to have his body frozen.
I thought he was going to do it soon.

 

[Heather]

Oh, Bring it on....

 

[Jenxy]

"Going to have his body frozen"??? Have you seen him on tv??? He's so hard-hearted at times, he could freeze the sun if he were close enough!

 

[jimbeekeeper]

I have a large chest freezer and a pad-lock, can someone give me a hand to push him in while I put the lock on?

It is only -18 so it might take a while for him to freeze

 

[hedgerow pete]

just a quicky is that temp farinhieght , celcius or kelvin, i dont under stand this 40 year old imperial junk

 

[VEG]

I think it is supposed to be a joke as absolute zero is -273.15 degrees celsius.

 

[Geoff]

We knew that. It just reminded me of something, else.
Cowell apparently said that he could be thawed when doctors had a cure for what had been wrong with him .......arrogance, vanity, stupidity, pig headed.................. But who would be daft enough to thaw him out?

I think it is supposed to be a joke as absolute zero is -273.15 degrees celsius.

Eureka, and absolute zero is how many degrees Kelvin (often abbreviated to K)?

Yoss

 

[VEG]

0 K on the Kelvin scale

 

[jimbeekeeper]

But what happens if you chnage you temperture to zero Rankine?

 

[VEG]

Absolute zero is also precisely equivalent to 0 °R on the Rankine scale, and −459.67° on the Fahrenheit scale.

So when Yossarian said he'd be 0K, you could reply, "Oh, arr?"

 

[hedgerow pete]

so for once can we get something serious looked it to,



at absolute zero how long is it before my beer is cold enough to drink
one second or two
