I received this inquiry from the SI Navigator web site today. I'm a little pressed for time at the moment (house going up for sale, preparing for viewing, etc.), so I'd appreciate it if some of you could give Samantha some views. Please use the email address below, but note that the inquiry comes from Samantha C. and not from Melanie Sullivan, the owner of the email account. I suggest that you copy the list on any replies you send her.

Do you feel that the metric system is easier, or more confusing than the English system (that we are currently using)? What kind of effect do you think it will have on our country if we did switch? Thank you, Samantha C.
