This is pretty much meaningless. Temperatures can be summed. That doesn't mean that the result is meaningful. If fact, one sums a collection of temperatures as an intermediate step in calculating the average temperature. While the sum of a collection of temperature has no meaning, the average does.

So, what does it mean when a key is updated? Received on Mon Jul 30 2007 - 06:18:46 CDT
