I can't get used to Fahrenheit. I can't figure out the basis! Water freezes at 32F, and boils at 212. Why? What does 0F represent? Is one degree fahrenheit just arbitrary. Celcius just makes sense. Water freezes at 0C, and boils at 100C. There's a real-world basis for the system.

Admittedly, when I'm cooking, I still set my oven to 350F, rather than 175C

Porkins never really died. His weight carried him to the core of the Death Star and caused its destruction. Due to syncronicity, Luke shot at the weak point at the Same time Jek hit the core. This was the cause for much resentment on Jek's part. Luke got the medal, Jek got to wash his jockey shorts. Further evidence to Jek's survival is the question from Red Leader who asks "Red 6, do you see Red 5?" This question was posed after Porkin's "Fatal" crash. He obviously responds for the leader does not question any other fighters.

CONTROL OFFICER: Squad leaders, we've picked up a new group of signals. Enemy fighters coming your way.

LUKE: My scope's negative. I don't see anything.

RED LEADER: Keep up your visual scanning. With all this jamming, they'll be on top of you before your scope can pick them up.

RED LEADER: Biggs! You've picked one up...watch it!

BIGGS: I can't see it! Where is he?! He's on me tight, I can't shake him...I can't shake him.

LUKE: Hang on, Biggs, I'm coming in.
