The thin end of the wedge is in. We already have some still anonymous decimal coins in our pockets. Ninety in the shade will be an unimpressive 32° Centigrade. The communistic metre - so called by an Astronomer Royal for Scotland - is on its way. Dr. Pyke argues not that things have already gone too far, but that they haven'gone far enough. Wouldn't a fever of 313° Kelvin be something to talk about?
