Thanks, Stan.
That's an admirable approach for a small garden. Our situation is quite
different. I plant in 1.5 m wide lanes, separated by 2 m wide aisles of
grass which I periodically mow with a bush hog. (That's a tractor
powered mower 1.5 m in diameter, for you city folks.) Typically our
I think a line somewhere saying what being non-metric COSTS the US economy, and
how it depresses the US GDP, would really get their attention.

Let's hope not. I remember hearing comedian Lisa Lampanelli's routine,
where a brief mention of the metric system was very positive. It was in
the context of what Canada got right and what we did not.

Most things are individually packed and labeled (ie, syringes, needles, IV
tubing, scalpels, etc.), but I'm sure they come from a wholesale supply
chain. Each product type has at least a couple of manufacturers. Some do
better job than others in terms of including metric.

Yes, I think it's only Australia and a few other countries that use the kPa
for blood pressures. Funny enough, there is a mm Hg/kPa converter out
there that assumes kPa are used in Europe for this purpose:
