This year's Belfast Ulster-Scots Festival (the second) is celebrating Lord Kelvin. I know next-to-nothing about Kelvin, but I remember the name from my Physics classes of 20+ years ago. He was the guy who invented (discovered, theorized, imagined, whatever) Absolute Zero.
Ah, how we laughed when we discussed the possibility of achieving an Absolute Zero on our Physics exams. Fun with thermodynamics, what's not to like? I can well understand how you'd build a whole festival around such frivolity.
