You are mistaken. It's a really cool old thermometer that we found at an antique mall. I really like it and it will continue to hang on the wall- it just isn't accurate.

Looks almost like mine. Except mine has been outside for over 20 years, so it is a lot more weathered. It is still very reliable.

I think I figured out how the weather stations get their "feels like" temps from. Yesterday it was burning up hot. The weather station was reporting temps of 88° with a feels like" 101°. I went outside on the porch, and my trusty weather station showed a temp of 88°. I didn't believe it for a minute. I moved my personal weather station from the porch to outside in the sun. The temp jumped up to 101° in short order.  So now, I think I have figured out what those reports really mean.

I think the "feels like" temperature is determined by factoring in humidity and/or wind speed in with the actual temperature. One of my old "Ranger handbooks" had a chart to calculate it that way, anyhow.

Diogenes was eating bread and lentils for supper. He was seen by the philosopher Aristippus, who lived comfortably by flattering the king.

Said Aristippus, ‘If you would learn to be subservient to the king you would not have to live on lentils.’ Said Diogenes, ‘Learn to live on lentils and you will not have to be subservient to the king.’
