Another my theory is that in Russia we use so called "alcohol meter". It looks
like a usual glass thermometer, but in reality it floats vertically, like a
fishing float and has a scale on its side. If you put it into a glass of
alcohol it will show you its purity. ;) That scale maybe is in degrees,
although I am not sure.

Bye, Ardith!
