Do farenheit and centegrade have a common point?  Well, yes and no.
-40 F = -40 C, but C=Celcius now, not centigrade, so the latter does
not exist! ( :-) )  Actually, any two systems where the temperature
intervals are different will intersect.  (It might not be at a real
attainable point, however, for bizzare scales.)
