back to physics class for you. Water can be 100% liquid at 32°F. An ice water mixture will be at exactly 32°F.
That would be chemistry, actually. What I was saying is that while water freezes at 32 degrees, you can put ice cubes in a glass of water...and it will be "ice water" but it won't necessarily be 32 degrees.

tsk tsk TKramar... can't you understand?
Its not like it has to be that accurate to get these devices to be within 1/10th of a degree...

I think that would be physics... or you could even put it in thermodynamics.
If you've ever actually used a temp. probe and done this, accurate to .01°F/°C, then you'll find it should actually be 32.01°F or 0.01°C... Just saying..

After a few minutes it will be. Exactly 32°F. And it's thermodynamics which is a subset of physics. It may be taught in other classes in high school, but the properties of fluids is physics.
Everyone agrees--that cap and trade will drive prices up. The only disagreement is the amount prices will go up. There is no reason for this insanity -- but the proponents say: Prices go up a little. Opponets say: prices go up a lot. The only question is wether we should trust the government (proponents) on economic issues. I think not--they're recent behaviors show that the politicians knowledge of the dismal science is...well dismal.
