"Person" wouldn't be better?[edit]

I understand that people differ, more between each other, than woman differ from man, in the contextual, mean, of temperature tolerance, and/or comfort levels of warmth. Despite the fact, that, manufactures use similar terms and means for describing the characteristics, the use of the "person", term, would've been more appropriate, rather than using, probably confusing, statements, as are now.

talk about how the hat/facemask... and actual dimensions of dummy aren't standardized, so there is variance between tests conducted at different labs ; sometimes the variance is 20 degrees.

This needs to be mentioned in the article appropriate wikipedia style (not by me). Thanks — Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.51.144.118 (talk) 07:43, 17 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
