Hi again Velonews!

I just noticed that there's something wrong with the multiplier used in in Template:Ratio to convert from °C/kg to °F/lb. For example, a wool shirt has a warmth bonus of 1.8 °F and weighs 0.6 lbs, but its warmth ratio is 1 °F. Shouldn't that ratio be somewhere around 3.0?

Instead of 1 / (1.8 * 2.2046) ~= 0.2525, I think the conversion multiplier should be 1.8 / 2.2046 ~= 0.8165.

Sorry that I have to bother you with this, but I don't have the required permissions to edit that template myself.
