    Dear John,

    I'm going to resist the temptation to naively blurt out that it would be another one-half of the way down from zero to absolute zero (which is -273.15degC), which would come to -136.575degC, in preference to otherwise pondering that it would more likely be twice the current relative difference between the normal human body temperature (which is 37degC) down to zero, which would obviously come to -37degC...

    Cheerio,

    If twice as cold = half as warm; 0° C = 32°F ½ that is 16°F = -8.9°C or 0°F = -17.8°C twice that is -35.6°C = Not gonna happen in QLD

    How I worked it out is zero is 32 degrees F so I doubled that and used my conversion program to see what 64 degrees F was in C.
