Hey, we tried the metric system, back in the 'Seventies. I remember it clearly. It didn't work out very well and we switched back. Too stuborn, too many road signs.

I mean, it makes sense to you, you grew up with it. Most non-scientist people from the USA just don't know what a centimeter, millimeter, meter, or killometer are without basing that measurement on the standard system. I can show you with my fingers how long an inch is and I know how big a foot is, but centimeter and milimeter not so much. Meter is easy, it is just a yard.

We don't even teach the imperial system anymore. Must make American tourists crazy to see all the signs in Kilometers.

We just don't like the color green. Change the map colors and we'll talk.
