Fahrenheit was invented at a hospital for identifying patients outside of the normal range…

0°F is outside the normal human temperature range? No shit!

You’re talking a bunch of bullcrap! Fahrenheit was developed by a German Scientist and he just chose two measurements that were halfway decent to reproduce. That’s all there is to it. Got nothing to do with hospitals.
