I'm sorry I have a very bad memory... I'm getting old...

But it's strange. The thermometer indicates 50C, then I check the
temperature with a Panasonic tool that was already installed in the
default Windows Vista installation and it indicates 51C.
When I got the 70C in Linux I hard restart it and go to Windows as
soon as possible, so the time between the two test was only 2 minutes.
The temperature almost the same as the thermometer...

Something is wrong. The Panasonic tool, the thermometer, the kernel
indication? Maybe all three are wrong....

In winter it will be good to warm the futon. It's semirugged so I can
use it under my pillow :-)
