Annotation

The 'absolute zero' of temperature is not a brute fact of nature but a consequence of the way in which we give meaning to the concept 'temperature'. There is no connection between 'numbers' and 'heat' until we specify one. This is often overlooked and 'temperature' is regarded as a fact of Mother Nature.
