K 10 svn:author V 3 mph K 8 svn:date V 27 2002-05-01T06:20:57.000000Z K 7 svn:log V 301 s/-300K/~300K/ This is an absolute (kelvin) temperature. I expect that in the original source it was typeset as $\sim 300~{\rm K}$ or similar, meaning "approximately 300 K". Changing it to a minus sign in the fortunes file was clearly an error, as absolute temperatures are by definition positive. END
