	I was working on a simple heat transfer problem and was
using my 48SX.  I was using C degrees, my answers seemed to be

	enter 1 degree C twice then add them, the answer
	is: 275.15 degrees C

	This is clearly wrong:  Either 275.15 K or 2 deg C
	would be great, but it seems that the 48 is forgetting
	to convert back to deg C but is informing the user 
	that it has.  Bug!!!

	Are there any more of these LITTLE problems that a
user should know about.  Do the rest of the unit conversion
routines work fine???  Is it fixed in E?

			Thanks, Jay Nestle
