Log-Log example both axes with logarithmic scales

This description moves a little too quickly and might use too many English idioms ("eyeballing it") for younger readers to follow along.

I do data visualization for a living - I write code, graphics come out, and so on. This page doesn't seem unreasonable for any (sufficiently advanced) math student, with one exception - the associated graph has lines that make it look like a logarithmic scale (vertically), but I can't be sure by looking at it, and I'm not sure if this is right or not. Is it possible to explain the graph a little more?

Barry's Response - I think it deserves it, and shall give it a thorough review. As you can tell, the bulk of the article is for the more advanced mathematical/physical sciences student or professional, while the simple conversion was tacked on at the beginning for the people looking for a Fahrenheit to Celsius conversion and vice versa.
