Some of us are so old that Fahrenheit is ingrained in us and Celcius can be very confusing.
While I'm old, I have some limited capacity to deal with both, but as most of my posting is done on threads dominated by americans, I've acquired the habit of posting degrees in Fahrenheit.
I guess that doesn't make much sense really in view of the fact I'm annoyed that the spell checkers on Firefox/and my computer don't give the option for Canadian english such as colour as opposed to color.
