His custom-made "linnaeus-thermometer", for use in his greenhouses, was made by Daniel Ekström, Sweden's leading maker of scientific instruments at the time, whose workshop was located in the basement of the Stockholm observatory. As often happened in this age before modern communications, numerous physicists, scientists, and instrument makers are credited with having independently developed this same scale; among them were Pehr Elvius, the secretary of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences (which had an instrument workshop) and with

Manohla Dargis of "The New York Times" compared "Celsius 41.11" unfavorably to "FahrenHYPE 9/11", another documentary film aimed at rebutting the arguments made by Michael Moore. While Dargis felt that the purpose of "FahrenHYPE 9/11" was the detailed rebutting of the arguments put forward by Moore's film, she felt that the purpose of "Celsius 41.11" was to "make you afraid — very, very afraid".
